Everyone…meet Justin
(he’s been mentioned on my blog a number of times before)

Justin has been a good friend of mine for quite a while now.  We first met in college and began leading worship together at retreats and a college thing called refuge.  He’s been very vital in starting this church and has been helping in the development of it from the beginning.

He’s honest and encouraging (a tough combo) and is probably the best drummer/pad/norde electro player I know (yes he plays all three during our worship services). In addition to serving in the church by using his gifts, he also serves those in need. He works at homeless shelter in town as his full-time job (which isn’t always easy, by-the-way). He’s been teaching the leadership a lot about helping the homeless in a responsible and Biblical way, as well as, showing us which shelters do certain things (which is always helpful to us and the homeless).

Anyway, if you haven’t had the chance to spend much time with Justin (and you live around little rock), you need to. He can give you some great pointers in life and may even change your view just a tad.
