On My Way To India

Sometimes, and it seems more often these days, we have no control over timing. I just got done with an 11 day work trip where I was at the following:

·      Resurgence 13

·      Veritas Apologetics Conference

·      The Gospel Tour

Brittany and the kids drove down to Seattle to pick me up and we are staying at a hotel, since I leave from Seattle the next day to jump on a 14.5-hour flight to Dubai and then a connecting 4-hour flight to Hyderabad, India.

It’s been almost five years since I’ve been to India. My memories of India are filled with incredible food, heat, stray dogs, and bright colors surrounding the landscape. Five years is a long time and every time I have gone to India, something significant has always changed. Things don’t stay the same and at times it can be shocking to see how much change can occur. In my mind, India should have stayed frozen the way I left it five years ago.

I’m excited to see my grandparents, their ministry, and spend time with friends and family. One of the things I know is that I will absolutely love my time in India. One thing I remember, as a kid, was the last few days of every trip to India. I would get incredibly depressed leaving! I grew to love the culture, the people, and the food.

More to come while I’m in India!
