All about Eric...
Welcome to the interesting and slightly disturbing mind of Eric Havinga. This is going to be an odd collaboration of thoughts regarding my life as a missionary and observations of this goofy world in which we live in. I am a disciple and servant of Christ. Currently that means I am serving in Monterrey, Mexico. I am helping a team of believers to start a church there. I was born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, but love to travel. I enjoy all sports and outdoor activities but also enjoy a quiet night with a book or movie. I have realized much of my life is full of paradox. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, sports, and I am always up for a discussion with anyone about anything if they are passionate and knowledgeable about it.
Feel free to comment, suggest, critic, or whatever, just make yourself at home. By the way.. unleashed is a decent description of me and my style. Christ has set me free from the slavery of sin, and now His passion and love have mixed with mine to flow out of me like a flood; very hard to control; yet always for the glory of God. (sorry that was a really long sentence) I do my best to control the excess of the maverick style I like to live, but I never want to hinder the spirit from doing his work. It is a really fun, exciting, and to some people scary way to live this life here on earth. I do my best to live a hundred percent sold out for God trying to obey His will in all that I do; and loving the freedom He gives me. Just because I share my thoughts over this blog does not mean I think the world revolves around me, I realize more and more each day that I need to revolve around Jesus in order to allow my entire life to reflect him. I love meeting new people so feel free to hit me up :)
