One of the biggest stresses on my engagement wasn’t really the normal stuff–the wedding planning or whatnot. It was a phrase I’d rerun over in my head a hundred times: I don’t feel called overseas. Evangelism is not my gift. My husband-to-be surpassed the one I’d been looking for so many times over. And it really did seem God was leading us to marriage.
But was he?
Was I…selling out? I’d been headed in an overseas direction for years. What was I missing?
Go. Serve. Love is stoked to welcome David Armstrong today. A handful of unexpected facts about Dave:
He has taken off in an airplane one more time than he has landed in an airplane.
His current favorite character in the Bible: Balaam’s donkey.
He could eat black beans and rice with hot corn tortillas every meal of his life.
He’s set foot in 15 countries.
He already has his ticket for 4 days straight of playing table games at “Geekway to the West” coming to St. Charles, MO on May 17th.
He can shoot a rubber band 50% further than anyone else.
