I love seeing KFA-ers in their 'natural habitats.' Joelene and I had the opportunity to spend all day in a Chicago Federal Courtroom with KFA-er Sam Der Yeghiayan - Federal Judge for the Northern District of Illinois. The judge holds an extra distinction as being the first American immigrant (born in Syria and raised in Lebanon) federal judge in the United States.
He is an amazing mixture of grace, firmness, efficiency and humor on the bench. I was proud to know him and love that he is 'on mission' as a believer in his life with Christ - and it was great spending the day with him watching him work.
Looking forward to seeing many more of you out there 'on mission' where God has planted you. Wonder when and where the next "KFA SIGHTING" will be?
And be blessed.

PK...is that the same judge that spoke at church a while back? If it is, he was very engaging, funny and I really enjoyed the things he shared with us. I was just curious...you GQ model, that you are. :)

Yes, that's the same judge. What a great guy.
We should invite him back sometime! He was awesome! Seriously! :) I never had imagined any judge could be so personable. He breaks the mold...no wonder you like him so much...as do you.
