About
Sep 28th 2006
I’m married to a beautiful and wonderfully supportive woman named Wendy. Without her, I’d still be playing Civilization on my computer in a dorm room somewhere. We’ve had three girls together, Taylor, Selah, and Kahlea. You can see a picture of them here. We are in the process of adopting a fourth girl. We are trying to adopt from Guatemala.
But what about me? Who am I? Who is Jeremy Myers? The truth is that right now, I don’t even know who I am. So if you figure it out, let me know. You can contact me at jmyers@tillhecomes.org
I know who I was, and I’m not sure I fully like him. I know where I’m going when I die, and that thrills me. But between now and then, it’s just one big question mark. I had a big life plan and was doing quite well on it, but then….it all blew up in my face, and now I’m seeing that it wasn’t a very good plan. So, I’m back at square one.
However, a few things are beginning to emerge. One thing I am really excited about is that it looks like I’m headed for church planting, but in a way that most people, Christian and non-Christian alike, might not call “church.” This will probably happen somewhere in the Northwest, I’m looking at Montana right now.

Just curious about your church planting plans. Why Montana? Where else have you considered? Are you thinking about a missional/organic type of plant?

Brad,
I am open to nearly anywhere, and I have considered many different places, from here in Texas or Oklahoma, to New Zealand (came really close to that option, but then we learned that we can’t adopt and move to New Zealand…).
I am still leaning most heavily toward the Northwest United States, partly due to demographics (one area I am seriously considering is only 10% “churched”) and partly due to how God has wired me and my family.
As to your second question, I definitely want it to be missional/organic. My greatest temptation right now is to go with something “safer” or more recognizable and familiar, but every time I consider it, I discover some core value of mine that I would have to compromise. Please pray that I stay true to what God is teaching me!
