Reflections on 20 years of ministry.
Namely, Christ
It’s tempting to believe that our opinions should rule the day when in fact we are called to deprioritize our opinions for the sake of Christ, though it’s very easy to conflate the two. Such a time as this calls the church to focus, namely, on Christ. Peter Sung serves as an executive coach and organizational psychologist with the Covenant Church, working with leaders, especially church planters. He lives in Seattle with his beloved Susie, their four daughters, Emelyn, Madelyn, Sophia, and Amelia, and their Irish doodle, Hobbes. He enjoys being active, good food, and keeping his mind busy.

Let's talk about it.

Habakkuk
Live from the North Central Washington Fairgrounds. We apologize for the audio glitches.
In the book of Habakkuk, the prophet Habakkuk begins by complaining and questioning God who seems to be silent and unconcerned for his people. Yet, as God reveals his divine work, Habakkuk must let go of his own expectations and wait patiently for God to fulfill his divine purposes in his timing and ways. In the end, Habakkuk’s complaint gives way to a beautiful trust in God that is not based upon the prophet’s circumstances.
