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 […]
The Irony of Sad Songs
For those of you who don’t know, I’m making a record in 2016. I’m really excited. I’ve spent the past two months recording some basic demos for 14+ songs while I wait for responses from potential session musicians and make plans for the crowdfunding campaign. Since my vocal coach got a hold of me in […]
Someone’s Blood, Everyone’s Hands
Refugees and terrorists. Three words in, and you’re probably already polarized. A lot of us are self-professed realists, but no realist is really a realist (and that sentence melted half my brain).

Writing on the Mirror
A mirror is a place we use to examine ourselves to see if we’re prepared to go out, to see whether or not we look decent, be sure the hair is laying right or that you don’t still have tomato sauce on your face from that delectable lasagna. It’s also a place where we a lot […]
Sing For Him
You may remember reading my previous post “Scripted”. You may remember that I asked what your script is. Well, surprise—another question: what happens when you lose the script? What happens when all of the premeditated thoughts and actions simply vanish when it comes crunch time? Matter of fact, if you’ve been out to do some […]
The World Didn’t Stop
Three years ago, I experienced something I really wished I didn’t. Its echoes to this day deafen me sometimes. If you have read older posts of mine, you will eventually notice a sizable gap, or at least an extensive loss of frequency. Now, what in the world could have hurt so deeply to cause me […]
