A LOOOONG time ago and 10 pounds ago I posted this… I did that for a friend named Anne. To help her with her cute little book. Little did I know how the message of this book would look more like Jack Bauer than Holly Hobby. It kicked my ***. I’ll go ahead and name [...]
It’s a dance on this blog. There are those of us who “seem” more of the world than in it. There are those of us who love telling other people about the state of which they are sunk. I don’t think there is a clear answer nor will there ever be. But I think that [...]
“If you find yourself criticizing other people, you’re probably doing it out of Resistance. When we see others beginning to live their authentic selves, it drives us crazy if we have not lived out our own. Individuals who are realized in their own lives almost never criticize others. If they speak at all, it is [...]
The book industry is in an interesting time right now. I was reading Kem Myers blog a few minutes ago and it sparked all sorts of thoughts in my head. Tony, Tim, Anne, and countless others are writing books right now. I am in talks with a few publishers about a slew of ideas. I [...]

So I am taking my team through this devotional. SOLO – The Message//Remix Solo Clean. Simple. Lecto Divina. I think it is going to be rad. I am not the biggest fan of “devotionals” but I think Eugene and team have put out one that actually works. What are you using/reading/listening to lately to help [...]
I think that is the 3rd time this week the letters S-U-C-K have made it to a post title. I’m a sucker for good design. This is why I like Apple, Virb, and Mike Foster. I had conversation with Mike at Starbucks Wednesday morning and he just wanted to know about my life, my transition, [...]
Paxil. Zoloft. Depression. Pornography. Infidelity. Hate. Anger. Bitterness. What do all these words have in common? Church Work. I have worked in full time ministry since I was 23. It is the only “real job” I have ever had. This job is killing me and breathing life into me at the same time. This book [...]
