Chris,
Happy 50th! I trust you are reading many of these and feeling loved. Please enjoy all of them my friend. Receive.
We officially met in the winter of 2015 over a business meeting at Hartco. I had known of you from church but our first official meeting was over business. I never would have imagined that was how God initially orchestrated a friendship that would help change my life, my family’s life, and other lives with people I interact with. You and Jeremy Brown encouraged me to check out TNFM men’s trip that year. I was not able to go but did go in September 2016, 2017, and 2018. All of those experiences over those weeks with you and the guys was the start of me truly understanding the idea of sonship and my identity as a son In Christ. Because of you, your ministry, friendship, and encouragement I was able to step into that and develop new rhythms (quiet time daily), reading the Bible multiple times over, developing a personal mission statement and family mission statement, and growing closer in relationship with our Heavenly Father. I’m a better version of myself and it started with you. Thank you for your friendship and how you have helped change my life. I hope you feel all of the love from those around you as we celebrate this big birthday. Happy 50thBrother! Have a kick ass day!
Much Love,
Mike and The Cicak Family
