We had a great Labor Day Weekend with our whole family at Table Rock Lake in Branson. It's a great opportunity for our families from KC, Wichita and St Louis to be together in one setting. The grandkids really love it!
We are now in the Reflecting and Assessment months of our Sabbatical. Last week Susan and I completed Personality, Gifts, Roles and Values assessments. This week we are at The Navigators Headquarters for our Personal Contribution Assessment Seminar with the People Resource Team of The Navs who help us understand the implications of our Personality traits. One example is ,"Where do we prefer to focus our attention for inner energy?"  I'm an extravert so I focus on the outer world and people and things to be energized while Susan is an introvert and focuses  on the inner world of thoughts and ideas for inner energy.
As a result I am always pushing out for new ministry possibilities whhile Susan wants to develop, in a deeper way, the relationships we already have. We still learning how to find balance in this area.

Please pray for us to be able to continue to grow in our understanding of how God has designed us.
