What if I woke up every morning and knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I was right where I needed to be? What if I woke up every morning and realized that I had absolutely no control over the past? What if I woke up every morning and understood that tomorrow is resting […]
A couple of weeks ago I finished John Ortberg’s The Me I Want To Be. I LOVE this book. It got me thinking, brought clarity to the cloudiness, answered questions I didn’t know I was asking, and offered peace to replace some of my stirring. My copy is all marked-up with underlines and notes of promptings […]
Sunday night after spending an incredible day playing with family, eating a huge meal, and watching a fireworks spectacular, I came home and had my own little pity party. (I know, not how you thought that sentence was going to end?) It has taken me a couple of days to understand where the seemingly random […]
“If you could have anything, ANYTHING your heart desires, what would you want?” I’d struggle for a few minutes. But after some time, I’d sheepishly answer, “to be known.” As hard is it is to admit at times, that is really what I’m after. To be known. More than a successful career, more than abundant […]

A few months ago as the Senior Director of Marketing for Integrity Music, Stephen introduced me to John Mark McMillan and the song that inspired this series. Even more, I love that Stephen, his lovely wife, and beautiful kids just moved […]
Today’s “How He Loves” post is from Grant Jenkins, aka An Idol Heart. Grant is a fellow Cross Pointer who I met via twitter and blogging several months before our paths crossed “in real life.” I admire how Grant publicly wrestles with finding peace, purpose, and self-worth in Christ. Alone. Find his blog here. And his twitter here. […]
Today’s “How He Loves” post is from Alece Ronzino, aka Grit and Glory. As I have said before, Alece is seems well ordinary. She is as easy be around, smart, authentic, and sassy. She is a kindred soul. But at the same time Alece is extra-ordinary. She ventured to Africa right out of high school to […]
Today’s “How He Loves” post is from Trisha Davis. As I said on Wednesday, Justin and Trish(a) are two incredible people. They know all about brokenness, restoration, and redemption. Through their ministry at Cross Point Bellevue and Refine Us, they teach others (like me) the power of authenticity, truth, and grace. I am honored to call them friends. […]
