Changed lives change lives

Harlan1

My good friends, Zac and Erin Harlan, are featured in an article and I just want to take a moment to point the spotlight on them and on Christ.

I have been honored to watch Zac's life be transformed by the gospel, grow in his relationship with Christ, and marry Erin (which I had the privilege to officiate!). Then I've watched them together welcome Addie into their lives.  Zac and Erin were a bit taken aback when they learned their daughter had Down Syndrome, but I have been so touched watching the amazing way they have loved her and learned from God through her.

And now their lives, having been changed by Christ and by their precious girl, are about to radically change the life of another precious little girl.  But to learn about that, you have to read the article!

To me, this is proof once again that when Christ has truly changed a life, that life will inevitably change the lives of others.  I'm praying that the future church we get the honor of starting will have more Zac & Erin stories in it, so the changed lives we get to see will change even more lives around Iowa and the globe.
