Anyone know why my comments aren't working?

Apparently my comments aren't showing up on the previous post.
Anyone know why?

update: they show up on this post....

That's a mystery!

Take off your shoes...for you're on holy ground.

Following in the same flow from Kyle's last post...

Somehow I'm not sure this is what God had in mind that day when he told this to Moses.




It's a little long, but well worth it to see where this worship guy goes with it.

HAHA!!

mmmm.....

We had delicious fajitas last night.

I shook the Mayor's hand yesterday....

Yes, it's true. I met the Mayor of Dallas yesterday. He's really nice and has been a champion for progress with the "less than" in Dallas since being elected last year. CDM was having an open house/media get-together to start off the construction phase of a new project in downtown Dallas. It is called "CityWalk at Akard". It is a new housing project being built in a converted high-rise in the middle of downtown. Again the paper wrote an article if you would like to read it. If you're interested, read the comments from people about the project. This one has certainly stirred the pot!!

My new job.

I still work for Central Dallas Ministries but I've recently taken a new position as Case Manager for Destination Home, CDM's newest program. We provide permanent supportive housing for individuals with a history of homelessness and also a disability. Most of our clients are chronically homeless meaning that they have been homeless for at least a consecutive year (most longer) and/or have had 4 episodes of homelessness in the past 3 years. Disabilities range from physical disabilities, to chronic illnesses, to substance and chemical dependence, to mental health issues.

The Dallas Morning News recently did an article on us, you can read it here if you would like. I really enjoy this job. I love the relationships built with my clients and getting to hear their inspiring stories of life on the streets. It was definitely a God thing because this job was offered to me shortly after reading a great book entitled "Same Kind of Different As Me" by Ron Hall. It really instilled a desire to work with this population again (a return to kind of work I wanted to do in Portland!). If you have time, READ IT!
