Fun Maternity Pics

October 19, 2014
My wife and I had a lot of fun this past weekend taking some maternity pics at a local historic mill. We are on a tighter budget with the little man coming soon so we took the pics on a timer with our Canon camera. (She laughed because she's 9 months pregnant and I'm the one just sitting! haha)

Taryn and I always have such a great time laughing and spending time together. I'm so blessed to have a great marriage. I can't wait to be a father too. Praise God today for the blessings in your life. It's family and relationships that mean the most down here on this earth.

 Here's a quick little clip of our outing.

Is Your Life Complete?

August 15, 2014

A question to ask yourself today, “Am I complete in Christ?”  People ask me all the time how I’m so happy all the time. They ask me how I have such a great marriage. They want to know why I can get along with literally anyone. The answer is simple. I am 100% complete in Christ. Everything, and I mean everything, I’ll ever need is found in Jesus Christ. The world can’t tell you that. It doesn’t sell books, it doesn’t make the movies, it doesn’t sound romantic. I was complete be...

How Do You View Yourself?

July 3, 2014
This question might seem easy to answer at first glance. Once your really dive into this question it forces you to see things at a deeper level. Check out this video as I go over looking at ourselves closer in order to treat others better and have a different perspective of our Heavenly Father. God bless!

Did Jesus Really Claim to be God?

June 4, 2014
I hear this question asked often. Many people have said that Jesus only claims to be God in the book of John. They say in Matthew, Mark and Luke he simply is considered a prophet. This couldn't be further from the truth. Check out my pastor's blog post about this topic so if you ever hear this question proposed to an audience, you can easily defend who Christ really was. (Even though he in no way needs defended because He's the Creator of us all!)

Great Speakers Make Us Better

April 24, 2014
One of the things I highly recommend is to find great speakers to motivate, encourage and challenge you. People like Jim Rohn, Zig Zigler, and Les Brown to name a few have had a huge impact on my attitude and my professional and personal life. Here's a great seminar by Les Brown as an example.

Can hate mail be a good thing?

April 8, 2014


I've told my wife often that the biggest scare I have with my online ministry is getting into a habit of just witnessing and nurturing the Christ followers. Don't get me wrong, my personality is to encourage and there is nothing I love more than to lift up and brighten someone's day. Having that been said, I want to always be aware of the lost and dying world out there and I never want to be so inner circle focused that I lose site of my task to daily win others to Christ and his love for the...

Using Downtime Wisely

April 3, 2014
Some of the best advice I can give is learn to use downtime to grow as an individual. Not only can you use downtime to grow spiritually but intellectually as well. I have made a habit to keep a notebook/journal with me in my car so times like yesterday when I waited 2 hours for an oil change, I can prepare and grow.

The Bible says we are to number our days and count every moment. We need to constantly be working to make a better YOU.  A more attractive you is better for those around you and b...

April 1, 2014
