Throughout my life, as I’ve worked with people in so many different capacities, one of my weaknesses is that I always want more for people…see more in them than they do. Tony Robbins tells a story about a young person who joins the coast guard. He’s just graduated from the coast guard academy, and he’sContinue reading “What Would Jesus Do?”

Breaking the fear of success
Back in January/February, I had the opportunity to spend a long weekend in NYC. It was awesome. But…when I found out the address of the hotel, I felt so unworthy. As I was walking there, I passed over all of the fancy streets that you hear about in every movie about high-end NY. Park Avenue.Continue reading “Breaking the fear of success”
Writing is my release. It is the way that I work through what’s raging in my head, in my life in a way that is productive instead of falling prey to self-destruction. It is something I do for ME. It is the way that I get my story out to the world in an understandableContinue reading
Metamorphosis
We all have core values…whether we define them more not. One of my core values is that I will always welcome challenges and change. Recently, I was given an opportunity to host a podcast. About the entertainment industry. Me. Someone who honestly…is not a student of entertainment. Business? Makes sense. Mindset? For beginners and thoseContinue reading “Metamorphosis”
Being a Christian in the US today is rough.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s not as rough as it is in Muslim countries. I can declare my faith openly here without fear of being killed, tortured, losing property or being imprisoned. Being a Christian doesn’t mean that I’ll lose my job. Before you throw stones at me or crucify me, hear me out. InContinue reading “Being a Christian in the US today is rough.”

Dreaming again
It’s been a long time since I’ve dreamed. I have had dreams, but not God-sized dreams. You know…the things that you want to do but know that there is no possible way that you can do of your own power…the things that make you sick to your stomach because they freak you out so much.Continue reading “Dreaming again”
Spirit longing
I’m sitting here in my pj’s on a Sunday morning just like any other Sunday morning. But there’s something different. I don’t want to be relaxing today. I want to be doing. I want to be a part of something much larger than I. I am really upset that I can’t find a churchContinue reading “Spirit longing”
An un-dangerous life
I live a safe life. Today as I was driving to work, it occured to me that I live my life in a bubble. I exist in a suburban bubble. I live in a small town. I work in another small town. To get from my small town to the small town I work in,Continue reading “An un-dangerous life”
Can you blame me?
Warning…this blog is raw. Tonight I was talking with my mom. She recently began working with an after-school program in Camden. She drives the kids from school to the church where the program is run and then home. She’s been doing it for a short time, but she loves it. I can visibly see aContinue reading “Can you blame me?”
