Now that I am officially no longer the young adult pastor at New Covenant, I felt the truth could be revealed. The reason I left New Covenant is because of all the fighting! While it appeared we all got along so well on the staff, behind closed doors it was a completely different story. I just couldn't handle the constant fighting, which even turned violent at times. Why else would Mark Eades, the Middle School Pastor, work so hard at getting his black belt in Tae-Kwan-Do? Or Mark Forstrom, the High School Pastor, start kickboxing?
Don't believe me? Here's the evidence...

In all truth, I never thought a church staff could get along this well. The staff of New Covenant have become my family, and "losing" them has been one of the hardest things about obeying God into this call of church planting. My prayer is that one day I will be working along a staff that will honor Christ like this team has the past 8 1/2 years I've been with them, seek to keep unity in the Spirit, and have fun doing it!
