There are so many people to whom I would like to express my gratitude. To my lead mentor, Dr. MaryKate Morse, your steady leadership and Christlike character have served as both an anchor and a light on this journey. Words will never be able to express how grateful I am to have your fingerprint on my life. To my faculty advisor, Dr. Shawna Lafreniere, your expertise, friendship, encouragement, and a really cool coffee mug were exactly what was needed to get across the finish line. To the directors of the Doctor of Ministry program, Dr. Loren Kerns and Dr. Clifford Berger, though we protested, your insistence that we do the hard and frustrating work up front made the writing process enjoyable. To my journey partners, Mike, Chris, and Jason, you three have been the unexpected but oh-so-needed blessing of this experience. I look forward to continued friendship in the future. To the LSF2 cohort, I couldn't imagine a better group with whom to laugh, cry, and grow together. No wonder we are MaryKate's favorite. I also want to thank a few of you closer to home. To Kyndal, your research skills were invaluable to someone whose last project required microfiche. To Bob and Lanita, Mike and Alison, Bruce and Sheryl, your homes, surrounded by the beauty of forests and beaches, provided the mental and physical space I needed to write. Lastly, I am grateful for the elders, staff, and congregation of Monte Vista Chapel who saw fit to commit time, resources, and prayer to advance the kingdom through this venture. Then there are those who contributed to the artifact for this dissertation. To my mentor and spiritual director, Sheryl Fleisher, so much of who I am, what I have written, and The Journey itself is a reflection of your investment in my life. I am eternally grateful for you. Thank you, Dan, for your project managing skills and Caleb for your technical v expertise. Most of what you do seems like dark magic to someone like me. To the steering team, small group facilitators, and first-year participants of The Journey, thanks for dreaming big and jumping in with both feet. The kingdom is expanding because of you. Finally, I want to thank my family and friends for their constant support and encouragement. Your questions, prayers, and words of encouragement always came at just the right time. Above all, I want to thank my wife, Michelle. It is in you that I have seen what intentional Christ-following looks like, and it is through you that I have been challenged to do the same. Your love, support, and sacrifice over the past twenty-six years, and the past three years in particular, are the fertile ground out of which so much of my life and our ministry has grown. Now, with this chapter behind us… it's your turn! vi TABLE OF CONTENTS
