Four years and no posts. What’s going on?
I’ve been on vacation this last week and one of the things I did with my spare time was work on reviving this blog. It has posts going back nearly 20 years and, for better or worse, I wanted to bring it back and start blogging again. Most of what I’ve shared in the last…

Our Spiritual Ears
I’m in an incredible season right now and my mind is practically vibrating right now with excitement because of the events that are going on in my life and the church we serve. I’ve just finished two years of wilderness in Texas that were very trying in many ways and amazing in others (I did…

A Darkened Room
I’m installing some blinds in my office today. Because of the large amount of snow outside reflecting the sunlight it’s sometimes very difficult to see my computer (what an 80s word) screen. As I sat back down at my desk I had mixed emotions; even though I can see my screen much better I’m not…

A journey of trust and money
This last August I left the best job I’ve ever had. I was working at Gateway Church, one of the most amazing and healthy churches on the planet, where I was part of the small group of web developers and designers responsible for maintaining dozens of websites. It was an amazing job and even though…

It’s Not Worth It Guys
I had it all. Well, almost. I was working in a highly lucrative contract position making a six figure salary. I was doing all sorts of home projects, buying toys, eating out every meal, I was loving every minute of it. The only problem with all of this was that I was having to work…

Noise
I had good intentions. It was about 5am and I had managed to drag myself out of bed and throw on a pair of jogging pants and a sweatshirt. It was the start of a new commitment, again. I had committed to getting up early and getting some exercise and trying to reign control over my…

Closing the Distance
I had messed up pretty badly. It felt as though my seven month streak of faithfulness had just come to a screeching halt with one bad decision. At the time it didn’t feel like it really affected much, I knew I could pray and God was faithful to forgive me, everything would be okay. But…
