So, I’ve been doing a study on my name…well, sort of. I decided to study Aaron in the Bible and see what kind of guy he was. I’m learning something I believe they teach in Sunday school, but it’s lead to a chain of thoughts that is proving to be very challenging. Now, I’m still...

I'm movin' on…
Well, it has been quite a minute since I’ve updated, mainly because I’ve been waiting until everything was confirmed so I could let you know all the details. But it is official, I’m moving to Ocala, Fl in the next couple weeks. Since YWAM was over I’ve been praying about where I felt like God...
Next:
I would appreciate some prayers for the next week. I’ll be leaving tomorrow to go down Gainesville/Ocala, Florida for the week. I’ll be meeting with my friend Chad and we’ll be talking about what we feel God is leading us to do for our next step in ministry. I’m excited and nervous and a bit...
Rooted and Grounded
Love. That’s what it’s all about right? I ran across a great reminder this morning and I wanted to share it with you. For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according...
Back at the Base
We arrived yesterday at the YWAM base, and I must say, I have missed the beauty of this place. The peacefulness, the quiet, the nature. We’re debriefing for the next few days. Today we talked about the lecture phase of the DTS and tomorrow we will talk about the outreach phase. It was a good...
"You are Loved and Valued!"
We went out last night to the “alternative district” of Chicago last night. It’s very close to Wrigley Field and is home of numerous bars and clubs. Things don’t really start happening until about 10pm or so, so we left around 9:30. Unfortunately, it was raining for about the first hour we arrived, so we...
Proverbs 19:17
This absolutely makes my brain mush: He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord, and He will pay back what he has given. – Proverbs 19:17 Go ahead an try to wrap your head around that one…
What Would You Do For $100?
Yesterday was our day off. We had no agenda except to relax and recharge. For me, recharging most always involves me being alone, in nature, or just lost in a sea of people I don’t know. I decided that I would attempt to get up at 5:15 to see the sunrise at 6. I woke...
Here to Serve
We went out to do some homeless ministry last night at a park by the lake. Our goal was not just to meet the physical needs, and though that is so important, we really wanted the night to be filled with conversations revolving around Jesus. For the first 20 minutes of our walk we could...
I'm Lovin' It!
It’s been so cool to see how God has been using our team, and I’ve really started to understand how much God actually WANTS to use us. We just have to be willing and ready to talk when He says to talk, and walk where He says to walk. Tonight we went to a very...
