Andi's Angle Archives: Articles from Singles Newsletter 1997-1998
When I was a member of the Singles ministry at Madison church of Christ, we had a monthly newsletter that we published. From time to time, I contributed articles to the newsletter. This post, and the next several, are my archive files. May you enjoy the trip down memory lane.

Departing Lima I had my first look at the Andes Mountains, courtesy of an insane, yet kind, flash of Shane’s generosity. He thought he wanted to sit on the aisle and offered to trade seats with me for the flight. (Thanks, hermano!) I’ve seen mountains when I’ve gone camping in North Carolina, but never have I looked down on any mountains. While marveling at God’s awesome creation, the song “From A Distance” popped into my head.

The clock ticks down to one second, and the coach calls a time out. His team is down by two points, and he only has time for one play. He gathers his team together and explains what he wants them to do. They return to the court.
