GOVERNOR

Governor Mike Huckabee
We're at the Biennial Gathering of the General Council of the Assemblies of God this week.  Thousands of pastors from across our fellowship gather every two years somewhere in the country - this year it's Anaheim, California - to worship, vision, have community and do the business of the denomination.

Tonight, in a pre-Council meeting, Joelene and I had the distinct privilege of being invited to the Richard Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda to tour the facility, including Nixon's boyhood home, followed by a gala dinner featuring former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as speaker.

Richard Nixon Presidential Library
Governor Huckabee is an engaging man and spoke with self-deprecating humor, closing with a serious and heartfelt challenge to us all that what we do makes a difference -- and if not us, then who?

Challenge accepted, Governor.

And be blessed.
