Hello From North Carolina!

Hey One and All!

I'm currently tucked up away in the mountains of North Carolina. Moravian Falls to be exact. This is an incredible place. The history is rich to say the least. First you need to know about the Moravians. Basically they were a group of people who started a little prayer meeting that lasted for 100 years, 24 hours a day over in Germany. A man named Zinzendorf started that whole thing and he actually came over here and started the same deal on these mountains. Hence the name Moravian Falls. When he signed the name as to who owns the land on the deed he wrote in "Jesus Christ". That's some good heritage.

Needless to say this place feels amazing. Then add to the fact that some of the most influential men and women of the church all live here and you have yourself one strange community. It is mind boggling to drive down the road and go, "There is Larry Randolph's house, there is Paul Cain's house, there is Bobby Conner's house, there is Rick Joyner's house, there is Suzy Wills' house, there is Don Potter's house, there is Doug Addison's house..." and the list goes on.

Of course since we're all crazy in the church we immediately start to think, "Oh don't go idolizing the people!" but in all honesty these are incredible men and women of God who have given everything to effect change and have given their lives for the church. It is like walking through a modern day hall of faith and if you choose not to look at the lives these people have lead then you are missing out and missing a major lesson. This is where the aspect of true, Godly honor kicks in and we need it back in the church today.

All this to say, what an incredible piece of land this is. What is it that has caused such a place to come into being? How is it that this little, out in the woods area has come to such a place of influence in the world? That's the real question that I want to ask everyone here. Most people would go bonkers and try to get prophetic words out of everyone (yes, I am wanting that too), but really... the question I want to ask them all is, "How?"

The view is amazing from here. Whether you are looking out the fourth floor of a certain man's study over the valley, or if you are looking through the trees from the porch of someone you've never heard of or if you have your eyes closed in the car. The view is amazing from here.

And best of all, I still have almost a week left!
