We don’t have to do this alone, but first, we have to find each other, and that’s hard to do without the light of hope.

What if we’ve been the problem all along?

Are we sure we understand the concept of “big things for Christ”?
I Don’t Care
Once upon a time, I found Jesus. More accurately, He found me. After spending a really long time not knowing how much I need Him, I finally saw myself for who I was, and I called out to Him in response to His call to me. That was almost seven years ago. I had no […]
Love And Fear: Campaign Update 2
We’re about to close the first half of our crowdfunding campaign! If you haven’t heard, I’m making a record with some amazing musicians and friends, and we’re raising money for gear. When you pre-order the record for just $10, you’ll get an instant download of one of the singles, “Find You In The Light.” We’re […]

Bring Out Your Dead
One of the most difficult things anyone can do before they die is admitting they were wrong about things. We all do it, right? You make a math error in class or in your checkbook, or you misread a bill and pay it late. You’re repairing a car part and misplace a screw. Anything. Small […]
