DC came alongside me several years ago, back when he was attending GCC as a student athlete and star linebacker at Notre Dame. He's done more to bring the next generation of leaders into the missional work of the church than most can imagine.
When he left GCC to play in the NFL I was sad (for myself and for all the little NFL running backs who would get to know him in such a personal way). When he left the NFL and came on staff at GCC I was happy (for myself and for all the people he'd help me lead on the mission of Christ). He's a good friend.
I caught DC laughing with his workshop participants at the AND Conference this afternoon. It made me smile. I thought I'd pass it along so you could smile too.
Romans 12:9-10 - Love from the center of who you are; don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply.
I am honored to call this man my friend.
