Once again, prayers have been answered for us! God has provided a new home for us, and it's an excellent compromise between fiscal stinginess and irresponsible spending. Instead of a small apartment or a house, we found a townhome apartment for a reasonable price (at least, in relation to other prices around here).
There are two stories. The main level will provide needed space for hospitality and hosting small group assemblies. The second level has two bedrooms. So, the spare can be used as an office space when it's just Birdie and me at home... or as a guest bedroom for supporters that might want to come visit. All of this for under $2,000 a month!
One of the things about our new home that has me very excited is the built-in community that we'll be joining. The apartment complex has a nice facility with a pool, hot tub, gym, dog park, etc. All of which provide an opportunity right outside our door to connect with people in a casual way. I can already see the possibilities!
Besides finishing up some paperwork and paying the initial costs, all that's left before us now is to wait for the move-in date, November 15th. Thankfully, our gracious teammates, Joshua and McKenzy Clearman, will continue to provide housing for us until then. All in all, God has definitely answered our prayers for housing, both in the month to come and in the present moment. Again, I am left feeling greatly humbled and thankful that God is bigger than my petty frustrations and doubts.
Pressing forward... Nathaniel
