Being a Christian is far from easy—but it is simple. The world often makes faith seem complicated, as if we must decipher some hidden code or figure things out on our own. But God has already given us everything we need to walk this journey. His Word is our guide, our foundation, and our sourceContinue reading “Finding Answers”

Am I Enough?
If I’m being honest, this is a question I wrestle with more often than I’d like to admit: Am I enough? Am I a good enough leader at work? Do I belong in the rooms I’m invited into, or am I just faking it until someone finds me out? Am I a good enough husband—lovingContinue reading “Am I Enough?”
It’s Been a Minute
It has been almost three years since I have posted to this site. Three renewals that I could have easily canceled and saved some money. But something was telling me to hang on to it. And every so often I will get a notification that someone liked an old post or viewed the site multipleContinue reading “It’s Been a Minute”
Commit, Surrender, Walk
I finally have the pull to write publicly again. It has been a long time, over a year, since my last public post. I have missed it, but it was not mine to control. When I have words to write – I write them. When those words are meant for public consumption – I postContinue reading “Commit, Surrender, Walk”
No Waste in the Wait
Where is God calling me? I have gotten very clear and poignant messages on direction from God for a good part of my life. I haven’t always listened. But what is surprising to me is the lack of direction He is providing currently in my life. I still get God Nod’s or Nudges and confirmationsContinue reading “No Waste in the Wait”
Yes, I Will
This morning, in my quiet time, I started off feeling like a disappointment to God. I am pretty consistently in the word. And I listen to more sermons per week than I ever thought was humanly possible, via podcasts, church re-plays, and live in-person preaching. A constant theme in most of these messages is howContinue reading “Yes, I Will”
Politics Schmolitics
For those of you that know me personally, you know that I have no desire to debate politics with you, unless of course you are my oldest son. If you are my oldest son, I will debate politics with you – because we have very similar beliefs but my number one job as your fatherContinue reading “Politics Schmolitics”
What do I do?
So many times, as men, we define ourselves by the career we are in or what we do for a living. You can witness this by the very first question we ask each other upon introductions – “what do you do?” And that’s IF we weren’t introduced by our name quickly followed by our profession.Continue reading “What do I do?”
Anxiously Astray
Looking back over my life it is clear to me now that I have always struggled with anxiety. While most of the time this “thorn in my flesh” has been very mild and some times not detectable at all – there have been times where its crippling grip has shut me down for days atContinue reading “Anxiously Astray”
The Other Side
To me, one of the most confusing aspects of our world, especially our country, and even in our Church, is the divisive and combative nature of our interactions. It is almost as if we are not allowed to disagree, at least not without despising each other. Sure we all have our opinions. Yes, we allContinue reading “The Other Side”
