Over the course of the next 3 weeks, I have the opportunity of a lifetime! Along with Crown's CEO, a Crown board member who is also a great friend, and a guy I met yesterday, I will be traveling around the world investing in and building strategic relationships with key people.
Here's the scoop: We leave tomorrow for Budapest, Hungary. We will be there for 3 days participating in a European Leaders Summit. After Budapest, we hop on a plane for Beijing for 5 days. After Beijing we head south for 2-day stops in both Hangzhou and Shanghai. My 3 travel counterparts will return, and I will stay in Shanghai for 4 more days to spend QT with my brother who lives there.
To say I'm excited about the next 3 weeks would be an understatement.
I hope to be a more consistent blogger during our time across the pond. So, check back in from time to time and I will do my best to keep you informed.
A verse that has been close to my heart lately is Acts 4:13 "When they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and realized these were uneducated, ordinary men, they were amazed and took note that these men had been with Jesus."
Pray for humility in serving.
Sojourning,
Jon

Revisiting Intention
For the few and proud who keep up with this blog, I extend my apologies for the long delay between posts. I have no legit excuse for the gap. I do, however, have many ideas I would like to share with you. I've recently caught myself, on multiple occasions, in the middle of an idea that is blogworthy, which I then attempt to persuade Lauren of the blogworthiness of the idea. Most times it works, sometimes she's just nice. Regardless, I've made myself notes to come back and blog about. I think you'll like it.
I want you to know that I have lofty intentions for this blog; your time is valuable and these words should be meaningful. My intention is that you gain value by spending time here. So my goal is to offer encouragement, to stimulate thought, and to challenge you to think and be more than you think you can be. Those things always help me, and maybe they will help you, too! I think it will be good :).
