Darrin, Amie, Glory and Grace Patrick moved to St Louis in July 2001 to start this new spiritual community called The Journey. The Patricks oringinaly grew up southeast of St Louis in Southern Ilinois and have always cheered for the Cardinals.
Quote: "It would seem that God finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink, sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a vacation by the ocean. We are far too easily pleased." -CS Lewis
Wife: My high school sweetheart, Amie, is my beautiful soulmate (No, we didn't date straight through since high school. We went through several break-ups before we figured out that we loved each other).
Children: Glory is 4 years old and Gracie is 2, which means my wife and I are perpetually tired.
Education: Southwest Baptist University (B.A. Bible, Biblical Languages), Midwestern Theological Seminary
(Master of Divinity) and is currently pursuing a Doctor of Ministry in preaching in contemporary culture at Covenant Seminary in St Louis.
Hope and Vision for The Journey: That we would be a safe place for people who desire to get to know the God who loves them.
What is God teaching me right now? God really is in control even when I don't see it.
A few of my favorite things: Going away on vacation with my wife and having no schedule or responsibities and doing absolutely nothing that's planned. Basketball. Coffee. Movies. Weightlifting and eating. Reading good books. Having good discussion.
