Who am I? My name is Darian Gregory Burns. I am a child of the living God defined by His grace. I am a follower of Christ bought by His blood. I am married to a wonderful and beutiful wife, Edith, and the father of three amazing boys, Jonathan and Matthew (19 year old twins) and Micah (16). I am the pastor of Dundalk Presbyterian Church and ordained within the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. I have a Master of Divinity from Covenant Theological Seminary and a Bachelor of Science in History. Although I live in Baltimore, where I minister, my heart will always call the northwest hills of Georgia home. I love to read, listen to music, study history, travel, and spend time in the outdoors (as long as it is not cold – for the record cold is 40 or below for this southern boy).

Darian, This blog is a refreshing breeze in the world of the Internet today. I am going to enjoy reading your postings. This onetime Georgia girl from Colorado has moved to Costa Rica where the temperature is never under 75. You should think about my casa for a little travel and outdoors time in the sun!
WOW! What an ambitious and effective means of sharing: your heart for our Savior; the passion you have for growing in the Lord; the gifts Christ has given you to spread His love; and…how the ‘body of Christ’ can participate in this process!
Pastor, Teacher, and Servant – What a great way for you to share God’s Grace (God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense) directly from your heart.
Peggy, How wonderful to hear from you. Edith and I would love to come to Costa Rica and visit you and Dick. How fitting that my blog about grace would be a blessing to one of the most gracious ladies I have ever worked with. After all your years of teaching I hope you retirement is a blessed time of refreshment.
Connie, Chuck and Keith thank you for the encouragement. It truly means more than you will know.
I so enjoyed your blog – I started my own.

As always, you are an inspiration.
Thank you.
That is very kind Becky. I pray it will be used by God for a great comfort and creative outlet in your life. Used fo rHis glory!
Thanks for the insightful description of who you are. Now I’m embarassed “about” mine. Oh well, there is always time tomorrow to improve, right? Thank you for setting the bar on up there. Peace. Bryan (Dislocated Texan)
Thanks Bryan!
I agree with the previous comment. I like the feel and look and tone of your blog. I will be reading this for my personal encouragement and nurture. God bless you.
Standing on His promises,

So you’ve been to Bonclarken. Great place. I won’t be going to synod this year, so I’ll miss the place. When you live in the flatlands of FL it is great to smell the mountain air and behold His glory in the hills.
I hope you are enjoying your entrance to blogging (a big assumption based on the newness of this blog).
And a fan of Ashley Cleveland.
I love Bonclarken. I went two yers ago when Steve Brown was at A minsters reatreat. So relaxing. Ashley is great. I have only seen her once in person but it was powerful. I really enjoy your blog by the way. Thanks for the comment.
Stopped by after you left a comment at my blog (thanks, by the way)
Looks like we have a little in common. I have relatives in Rome GA, and one of my mentors just moved outside of DC, T.M. Moore. Your cultural redemption stuff made me think of him. He written at least a couple of books on the subject. In case you’re interested, here’s a link to him http://myparuchia.com
Also our reading list shares several authors in common.
Anyway, just wanted to stop in and say howdy. I’ll be back, I’m sure.
Thanks Seaton. I have actually been to a Presbytery meeting where Moore spoke. It has beena few years but i remember his words being a great blessing. Thank you for the encouragment.
Thank you for linking to our Sovereign Grace Music site – it’s really appreciated since we rely on sites like yours to make others aware of our music.
Hey – great blog! You’ve definitely been busy over the past few months. Thanks for logging on to my blog Sonburn (http://quesoveritas.wordpress.com/) – I appreciate the kind words. I’ll try to check back to your site often. Maybe my blog will look as great as yours in a few months.
