Why I Believe

Why I Believe

I'm not a warm fuzzy kinda guy. I can be sensitive and social, but the job I chose literally confines me to a sterile, dark room all alone...and I like that. I'm meticulous, analytical, and logically calculating, preferring numbers and words to pictures (as is intentionally apparent in this...

Someone Else’s Perspective

Someone Else’s Perspective

It's easy for me to forget how many others have contributed to any successes I'd be tempted to take credit for (Click to tweet). The last few years have been a wholesome but convicting journey confronting myself with people who have positively changed the direction of my life but haven't received...

God the Science Guy

God the Science Guy

In this post, I'ma be droppin' some science! Now for those of you aren't friends with that word, hakuna matata, we're not gonna go that deep. But over the last 20 years, I've wandered my way into many conversations concerning antagonism between faith and naturalism, and so much of it seems...

The Most for Your Money

The Most for Your Money

You work hard, you deal with (sometimes difficult) people, and you want to see results, right? Of course. And most of us don't just want results for ourselves, but for people who need our help too. You've probably heard me talk about our financial partner Bless BIG. It's our way to heal people's...

The Wisdom of Everyone

The Wisdom of Everyone

If there's one thing I've learned (you probably have as well), it's that intelligence and wisdom often don't correlate. I've seen the most biased, unsupportable claims preached by the academic. And I've heard the most enduring, practical truths casually slip from the mouths of children...sometimes...

Holiday Refreshment and Reflection

Holiday Refreshment and Reflection

Well, for those who still get one, Christmas break approaches! Enjoy if that's you! 🙂 For many, this time of year is one of refreshment and reconsideration. As such, I wanted to offer a refreshing change in the form of a guest blog author, as he calls us to consider a more fulfilling life heading...

The Best Birthday Build-up!

The Best Birthday Build-up!

And just like that, we're in the Christmas countdown! However, in our extended family, December also brings a vastly disproportionate number of birthdays than the rest of the year. Truly, a month of concentrated, supercharged gift-giving fun! As we travel around to myriad birthday or holiday...

The Art of Wrestling with Dad

The Art of Wrestling with Dad

So if you know me at all or have read even a short part of my Healing Hereafter ebook series, you'll have picked up that I'm kinda Type-A and like to have things neatly arranged and thought out. But today I'm thinking about politics, and we're not gonna get deep into that! Instead, I'll focus on...

Be with the People You’re with

Be with the People You’re with

It was a blast from the past. Last week I was walking through my fourth grader's school, seeing his first locker, and sitting on a tiny stool that hadn't fit my backside for 30 years. His teacher described her vision for the year, and I wondered how on earth a person got 22 preteens to do anything...

Only Teach if You’re Willing to Learn

Only Teach if You’re Willing to Learn

TikTok, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, and probably being cool...all things I've learned from young people. As the new school year approaches, a new class is coming to college, and soon I will meet many of them and be shocked how baby-faced some of them are. Except for that one freshman each fall...
