Thank You Desiring God/Lukas Naugle!

During my year and a half at Whitworth College I got to know a classmate named Lukas Naugle. Over the years Lukas and I lost touch. We reconnected at the Together for the Gospel conference in 2006 where I learned that Lukas was working as Director of Resource Strategies for Desiring God.A few weeks ago Lukas and three friends from Desiring God/John Piper's Bethlehem Baptist attended the 11am service at CPC where I preached a sermon about The Secret of Contentment. After the service I had  a long, laughter-filled, encouragement-filled, edification-filled lunch with Lukas and his friends. Good times. I was very impressed with these four men, with the type of questions they asked and with the quality of their thinking regarding the gospel and the church.After lunch Lukas gave me a small handful of free resources from Desiring God and asked if I might have use for a larger volume of these resources at my church. I said yes. Little did I know that I'd receive 7 boxes from Lukas, some of them 36 lbs. in weight, filled with John Piper resources!After hauling these boxes into my office yesterday I opened them with great excitement, all the while praying and thinking about how to best use them to advance the gospel and disciple the people under my care. I'm looking forward to start emptying these boxes and getting these booklets, books, and CD's into other people's hands.Thank you Desiring God! Thank you Lukas Naugle!
