Whats my motivation… I’d say its what Jesus did on the cross for me, but in reality, Im too selfish for that to motivate me daily. So like most I have a few news years resolutions, why? Because last year I kinda sucked at a bunch of stuff and I want to do and be better. But, and automatically we …
Lions VS. Babies
WARNING….THIS IS A RANT: I was reading this article and to be honest I didn’t read the entire thing. Full disclosure…I made it to the hippies crying over trees video. It was really the first part of this that has me moved to write. Let me say this, the article, up to the point I read, was great. I have …
What Ive learned… so far
As many of you know we believe God has called us to plant a church and are working on doing just that. However it has been truly a season of learning for us as we traverse these unknown waters in an unknown land. A lot of the time I am left feeling lost, alone, abandoned and failing because there is …
Equality and the Cross
To be honest I was fighting this. I didn’t really want to comment on this subject because its basically become a no win. Your either an immoral pro LGBT pastor who is now also a heretic or a bigot republican who hates all people and secretly apart of the KKK. Now I know that is a bit of an exaggeration …

Why do we remember 9/11
Ten years ago as a nation but so much more as a world we were changed. I think now more than ever about how this truly is my generations Pearl Harbor. I am lost for words as I realize that what I lived through will now be in the history books for my daughter to read. For me remembering 9/11 …
Bloated
As I sit and watch the sun crest over the mountains I wonder what today will hold. I wonder if the darkness will overtake the light or the light will break through the darkness. I wonder whose choice it will be. I contemplate if today will be like yesterday or today will hold some life changing event my soul has …
A lil bit of nothin

Nothingness could be considered negative, positive or neutral. Most would think it would be neutral but what about doing nothing when someone’s drowning that’s negative or doing nothing when tempted by the flesh …
Breakthrough
The shadows overtake my thoughts as I struggle to think of a happier time when rays of lights enveloped my entire being and I equated life with the weight of air. But now it feels as if the air has turned to a tar like fog that is un-relentless and torturing my soul. I cry out but the moment I …
Airport
As I sit and stare with nothing but a blank look on my face and my ipod firmly embedded in my ears, I watch, I listen. Using my ipod as a defense from having to be forced into an unwanted conversation with a total stranger, I act distracted and not open to socialization. Why? Why would I play such a …
