It was a particularly hot day in Dallas, and I was driving around the city looking for an apartment. Having just graduated from seminary, Lori and I needed to move from the condo we had rented for four years. I had resumes scattered throughout the country but was getting no response, or rather I was getting a response — “No.” We thought we would be looking for a place to live and minister in another part of the country; but, for the time being, we were staying in Dallas. It was a discouraging stretch of my journey.
