My mind is not just crunching data and reports the facts to me, it is partial, with seemingly an agenda, leading me away and swaying me often against my own good. John Piper says, our minds don’t just view things, they have a viewpoint which leads to a “mindset” that eventually will lead to death.

So you might be wondering…Why would Straightway Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of the Missouri Baptist Foundation, purchase a distressed campground called Windermere Baptist Conference Center?

I am not here to advocate one way or the other (we are Baptist after all with no Baptist being able to tell another Baptist what they should do), but with many church ministries starting at the beginning of the school year, a non-calendar fiscal year is it at least worthy of a discussion.

You see, at the Foundation we serve two sides of the same coin. 

We have resources to help you make a plan for your future and discover the possibilities. But start today. Summer won’t last forever, no matter how early the sun rises.
