An Anniversary Reflection
Posted by chuck maxwell on October 3rd, 2009 filed in Chuck's blogIt was 3 years ago this month that Northbrook consented to have me fill the role of the key leader of the Pastoral Leadership Team and not add another full-time pastor. While my inadequacies as a leader have certainly been exposed in these 3 years, and they have not been without some struggle, I have experienced God’s presence in some special ways. Mainly through conversations with brothers and sisters that encourage me and them to focus more on Jesus and less on on ourselves. To not settle for mediocrity as a church body. To be authentic and bold in our relationships. To be who Jesus said we should be.
I don’t really know what to expect in the next 3 years. But I do anticipate that God will continue to do in me what He has started. And I humbly pray we will see evidence of that in our church.

We love you Chuck!
I expect wondrous things because Northbrook, as a body of committed believers, really seeks God and His will.
I pray we don’t put Him in a box and that we ready ourselves for obedience to join Him in His work!
