Sheep W/O a Shepherd

Getting a late start today. I ran in to an old racquetball partner this morning at the coffee shop. He and his wife are currently looking for a new church. They got mad at the pastor because he got rid of the church secretary who was a major control freak. You have to love sacred cows. They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes and Jesus always takes a backseat to them. It was interesting to hear how God has been pursuing them in their state of wandering. He mentioned his experience in church with his daughter at the Air Force Academy and the impact Purpose Driven Life had on Him. He knows he belongs in Christian community and he longs for it. I tried to encourage him in the places I sensed the Holy Spirit moving.
