One of the greatest joys I have thus far experienced over the last 27 years has been the birth of my daughter. She is almost 11 months, and I can’t quite describe what it’s like to know that God has entrusted me to father this little girl. It is just amazing!
Next to diaper changing (after [...]

I have a hard time believing I am not dreaming sometimes. I have a beautiful wife, an adorable daughter, a great church that pays me to be their youth minister, some truly remarkable kids in our youth group, and have seen doors of opportunity open that I never dreamed possible.
