This morning Matt preached a message for the New Year all about Setting Goals. It was really tough for me to not preach at BridgeWay, especially given that it was a topic that I am extremely passionate about. Here is my personal list of Life Goals. I feel a little nervous putting them out here for everyone to see, but my hope is that by looking at my list you might be inspired to develop your own.
