…laboring for the gospel as it transforms me, my city, and my world for all of eternity…

After some small talk, I said the following words: “The reason I asked you [...]
- I shall rise from the dead…I shall see the Son Of God, the Sun of Glory, and sine myself as that sun shines. I shall be united to the Ancient of Days, to God Himself, who had no morning, never began…No man ever saw God and lived. And yet, I shall not live till [...]
This past April I was fortunate to have the opportunity to attend a conference called “Together For The Gospel” in Louisville, KY. It was a great conference with two of the most life changing messages I have ever been blessed enough to hear.
One of the things that stood out about that conference to me [...]
It’s early this morning, but I’m still buzzing off what happened last night. At our first vision meeting for Eternity, we had 17 people attend and I am so stoked about how it went.

This weekend is moving weekend. When the blog re-engages we will be in Jefferson City. Until then, I leave you with one of my favorite (and I believe somewhat analagous for this move) pieces of movie footage…I’ll let you ponder [...]
Unless of course you’re going to give great advice like this:
What are you most passionate about for your children? What do you celebrate in your children? When are they the object of your public commendation and celebration? Let’s make sure our commendation and celebration are theologically informed. Let’s make sure we are highlighting what really [...]
For those who know me, you’re seeing that I’m reading this book and thinking to yourselves “Boy that was a long time coming”.
