I got to spend a few days in the beautiful San Diego, CA. I went there for work, on a vision tour for possible future partnerships with churches there. It was a refreshing, encouraging and life-giving time (minus getting up at 3am on Monday and Wednesday =) There are people there planting churches among all different walks of life. San Diego is incredibly diverse, there is one area that in an 8 mile radius, there are over 40 languages spoken in the home. Crazy...beautiful. The last day there we went to the beach to hear from some surfers that are doing church plants among the surfing community...cool, huh? It turned out that one of the church planters used to be in one of my most favorite punk rock bands, Dogwood. I'm pretty sure I had an insane crush on him in high school...but he's married and has kids. Aside from the beautiful scenery and great weather, my favorite thing there was definitely the diversity. When you see all different people from all walks on life and all different countries...I think you just see the beauty of the Lord. I hope to make it out there again sometime in the near future. I won't mind living there either. =)
