Why I Don’t Wear A Wedding Ring

Posted on 06. Aug, 2011 by in Deep Stuff

“You should really wear a wedding ring.  Especially when you are traveling.” I had this said to me about a week ago by a random conference attendee. I wanted to reply… “Actually.  My wife would rather me not masturbate in the hotel room tonight with a figment of my imagination flashing across 15″ of LCD [...]

Let’s Start a Fire.

A couple weeks ago Losiah and I told you about my involvement as an ambassador for Both Ends Burning.  So many of you responded and signed the petition to change the broken system of international adoption. If you haven’t joined me in STEP 1, do it today! The task is huge, but Craig’s vision and [...]

Audacious Faith

Posted on 20. Jul, 2011 by in Deep Stuff, Featured

You know I’m never one to shy away from politics or any other controversial issue. And you all are always quick to speak up and chime in. One statement is true no matter what your political slant: If the church would be what Jesus asked us to be. If the church would do what Jesus [...]

After my night the other night… Um. Seriously? I cried the second his little girl saw him. Did you cry? Let’s just pass out the tissues… Los

That Freaking Chalk Board

Posted on 06. Jul, 2011 by in Deep Stuff, Worship Leading

When you walk into my home this chalkboard is the first thing you see. And scattered across the left side of it is the statement, “Before I die I want to _____________” It haunts me every time I walk in the door. Haunts me in a good way. Because I am forced to look at [...]

What The Church Can Learn From The Mob

Posted on 05. Jul, 2011 by in Culture, Deep Stuff

I miss the mob from Derek Sivers on Vimeo. Replacing this “business” with the “church” makes this video almost unbearable to watch. In a good and disturbing kinda way. Oh how much the current day church could learn from the mob. The good parts of the mob of course. Listening to that cab driver, and [...]

Posted on 14. Jun, 2011 by in Deep Stuff

I was watching Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition last night and had an epiphany! I’m fluffier than I need to be. Are you fluffier than you need to be? Believe it or not I used to weigh 30 lbs more than I do now. I’m not wanting to get back there again. Grant and I [...]

You’re Not All That, Just Ask Your Kids, To Be All That, Just Dance And Spin

Posted on 13. Jun, 2011 by in Deep Stuff, Family

I canceled all my morning meetings this week and a nice dollar gig so I could teach my kids the pentecostal spin. They don’t care about my gigs. But they were GLOWING at me in the crowd. It’s Better That Way… Los

Jesus On Influence

Posted on 30. Mar, 2011 by in Deep Stuff

Influence. We all want it. There is an entire genre of books and such set aside for it. And when we don’t get it, have it, or miss it, we head over to Applebee’s and throw down some babyback ribs along with some really cheap beer waiting for it to slowly kill us. But let’s [...]
