If you have stumbled upon this patchwork I call my blog, I hope that you find something that peeks your curiosity. This is a collection of thoughts, experiences and encounters about whose I am in the story that God had placed me within. I have been blessed with an amazing wife Katie who is a pastor too, and a daughter, Eden, who is simply a delight. They remind me everyday what it is to be loved. Enjoy

This week I am preaching on the triumphal entry. This is the part of the biblical narrative where Jesus rides a donkey, or colt into Jerusalem. In my sermon prep and research for this week, I have been struck by the the disconnect between the way we celebrate rockstars vs the people who are fighting [...]
With this kiddos all tucked in bed, or at least in their rooms, I find myself wanting something to do at 12:15am. I know I should sleep, but it is hard with a room to myself and I haven’t gone though the night time routine with Eden and Katie. Because the gym was closed I [...]
