Love Walks | Chris + Cross
As posted @lovewalks.org/blog
As intertwined as my story is with the story of Love Walks, I’m choosing to separate the two here in order to allow you to understand how God shaped me, preparing me to lead Love Walks. My hope is for you to begin to understand the momentum behind God’s movement in my life and the happenings that have brought me to this place of leading an organization.
It’s worth noting that I didn’t grow up as a Christian. Sure we celebrated Christmas, and I loved an Easter basket as much as the next guy (especially the jelly bellies!). But these holidays held little significance outside of the gifts that they then represented. It wasn’t until I was a Sophomore in high school that I began to understand what it meant to be in relationship with God. It was at that time that he began drawing me toward him. And though I would follow, I didn’t do so without hesitation. In fact, I distinctly remember telling God, “I’ll do this Christian thing, but I don’t want to be one of those crazy people traveling to the middle of nowhere, in some distant country to talk about you.” If you know a bit of my story since then you’ll no doubt catch the humor in the plan God had waiting.
