Some Angie thoughts...
Hi, Angie here. I still recall one day when we were starting our first little cell church with a handful of people and a lot of young children —mostly our kids I must add. Between Paul and I and the two couples working with us to pioneer this plant we had a total of 10 small children under the age six. During one of my times instructing the children, one precious little fellow about 4 years old, wanted my attention. As he motioned frantically and reached out for me he called out to me. And no he didn't call out my name, Angie, as most children not my own would— not Mrs. Wagler, nor teacher either. This small chap had known me all of his 4 years as his parents were some of our dearest friends. No he didn't call me by my name Angie that day, but he called out to me... "Paul and Angie!!! Paul and Angie!!!!"
I still smile when I think of it. Somehow, in his young mind 'Paul and Angie' was an inseparable entity. 'Paul and Angie' was me and probably 'Paul and Angie' was Paul as well. Made no difference to him. Jesus said a child will lead them. And unless we come as a child we cannot see nor enter the kingdom of heaven. And as our little friend so many years ago taught me, we understand in a fuller way that 'Paul and Angie' are indeed a team. The two are better than one. And the two are indeed one.
We are excited about what God is doing. Arise Now has been a dream incubating for a number of years. A dream of God arising in his people. A dream of his people arising full of passion and purpose in which plans and destinies are realized. I am delighted to be on this journey with my best friend of over 30 years. We have a complementary gift mix. He is loud while I am quiet... well actually I can be loud too ;)
