Ah…the 80’s. When the Christian music industry was more ministry minded and less entertainment ended. CAUTION: the following is my very opinionated stance on the ‘Christian’ music industry. Read at your own risk. I’ve been ‘taken back’ the last few days – to the music of Rich Mullins. Just about anyone in the industry or […]

I’ve noticed something within myself the last couple of days. It amounts to the pull for status – to be seen as successful – to be deemed ‘worthy’ by others. It’s that class reunion thing. My 20th college reunion is in October. If I go, I’ll still be on crutches. What bugs me about it […]

That’s the discussion I’ve been having with myself the last 72 hours. Short. To the point. And true. I received some tough news on Monday. I misinterpreted what the doctor meant 2 weeks ago when she said she ‘hopes to have me walking before it snows.’ I thought that meant walking without the boot, so […]

Well, I realize it’s been a while since I posted a general personal update so I thought I’d put one up real quick. Generally speaking: 1) I’m still on crutches – 6 months and still going – a new personal record (one I didn’t want to break!). I’m able to walk some on my foot – […]

God knows. And it’s really cool when He shows you He knows – like when there’s a desire of your heart that you haven’t really shared and God addresses it. He showed Himself in that way last night when the phone rang. Kirby, my friend from Canada, surprised me with a call. Kirby is one […]

From this morning’s time with the Lord: 2CO 5:15 and He died for all, that they who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.2CO 5:20 ¶ Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were entreating through us; we beg you on behalf […]

Sometimes you just need to worship. Woke up this morning, had my time reading the Word & praying, & wanted to put on a CD. I really wanted to listen to Chris Tomlin’s CD but it’s still buried from the move, so I put in Passion. And I just feel myself getting swept away. That […]

I just bought a house. I love it. I love being a homeowner. Yet I’m already concerned. About me. For me. It’s simple…I don’t want to lose the urgency of the gospel just for the sake of comfort. I don’t want to get lost in the comforts of carpet and patios and garages and grass […]

I confess…I’ve not been obeying doctor’s orders. She told me no change in activity & to use 2 crutches til I see her next Monday. And as much as able I have been. But moving & cleaning a house & all that goes with it makes it a bit hard to be on 2 crutches […]

Well, as of 12:30pm EST yesterday, I’m an official homeowner! And as of 2pm yesterday I was in cleaning all the walls & ridding them of their spiderwebs & inhabitants. Heading back this morning so bro can clean the gutters & have another cleaning crew in this afternoon to keep rolling. We move next Saturday, […]
