I don’t think any honest, devoted Christian can deny how vital it is within our daily walk to trust in the Lord. Countless clichés have permeated Christian culture as a result of this nigh-universal awareness. “Let go and let God.” “Jesus, take the wheel.” “Is God your pilot or parachute?” There’s certainly plenty of examples…

Over a week ago, I wrote about a comparison between myself and the Old Testament Israel. In it, I quoted a Scripture that I thought summarized my adult life so far: There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. Proverbs 14:12, NASB The message here…

Over the past several weeks, God has continually brought to light exactly how human I am, and exactly how beyond humanity He is. Over and over, He’s brought to mind Paul’s words… And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness” 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NASB) Over…

For the duration of my adult life, I have never encountered an employer that actually did team building exercises. Before I started working for a ministry, my employer didn’t really care much about the cohesiveness of the team. When I had my own company, it didn’t have time to grow into a team to do…

It took a little peer pressure, but Sarah agreed to have some pictures taken of us last night. Dana Heckler guided us through downtown Fort Worth in a night-time shoot. It was to be the first time Sarah and I had someone take a picture of us since we had a set of cheesy western-y…

I’m so blessed to be a part of a team that values vision and unity. Getting together periodically to discuss direction and strategy is critical in any organization. However, all too many focus so much on this practical element that they never address anything beyond the practical. Vision becomes a poster on a wall or…

Despite being primarily an IT guy, I also serve as our staff’s web developer which landed me on the “creative team.” I work with Blake, a guy who (to my limited awareness) mastered After Effects in a year and works magic with Photoshop. No, seriously, it’s magic. I think I saw him turn into a…
