Writings from a Christian Dad's perspective.
If you’ve gone quiet – not out of pride, but out of protection – let this be a reminder:

God hears you.
Your family needs you.
And your voice still matters.

Exodus 20:17 – “You shall not covet… anything that belongs to your neighbor.”Luke 12:15 – “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.” Let me be real:It’s hard to scroll social media and not feel like you’re behind.You see the new car, theContinue reading “Be Wary of Covetousness”
Proverbs 22:7 – “The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender.” I’ll be honest, this is one of those principles I wish I had fully grasped in my twenties. Debt is so normalized in our culture that we barely question it. Swipe now, pay later. Finance it. Stretch it.Continue reading “Be Wary of Debt”
Finding Purpose in the Corporate World For years, I have wrestled with a lingering question: How does my career in property tax software implementation contribute to God’s kingdom? I have written about this a few times as it is a constant struggle for me to try to reconcile. At first glance, my work seems farContinue reading “Leading with Faith”
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.
