As I have wrote about previously, I had the incredible opportunity to spend a week in Israel. The trip had such a profound impact on my life. The only events I would say have impacted me more are when I got saved and when I was baptized in the Holy Spirit. Being able to tour around Israel and go to many places that I have read about in the Bible was amazing. Having the opportunity to walk around some of the same places that Jesus was brought a whole new appreciation for what He did for me. I already believed the Bible was real, but seeing all these places brought a new depth to the Bible. I’ve talked to people about the trip, but it is honestly hard to put into words what I learned in Israel. [Read more…] about An Empty Tomb
Life
We Can Change the World
This afternoon I leave with a team to shoot an episode of TV One Life in Israel! I am so excited about this opportunity. We are currently in the production of our fourth season. I don’t think anyone who has been working on the show thought this would be an opportunity we would get when we started. A lot of people have put a lot of hard work into producing TV One Life. Many people have selflessly given their time and talents. When we started we were completely trusting God to help us. The place He has taken TV One Life is incredible.

I Am Blessed
I’m sorry my blog hasn’t been updated in about a month, but hopefully you all understand. A few weeks ago I left the single life behind. It was an incredible day, and as I look back there is one thing that is abundantly clear to me that I am blessed beyond anything I could ever imagine. Not just blessed to have an amazing wife like Angela, it goes so much deeper than that. The blessing of God was given a whole new meaning in my life that day. [Read more…] about I Am Blessed
A Little Out of the Ordinary
In just over four days, I will be a married man. I’ve known this day was coming for a while now (shocking I know), but this week it has become real to me. Not a scared or nervous real, but just real. Planning a wedding is an interesting process. A special thanks to Google and TheKnot.com for helping us do it without a wedding planner haha. It has had its ups and downs, but there has been one thing we have heard a lot throughout the process. There has been a phrase that has been said many times by many people, “It’s not my wedding…” [Read more…] about A Little Out of the Ordinary
Introduce a Little Anarchy
Yesterday afternoon at after school we got caught in the middle of a big thunderstorm. As if having a big storm with loud thunder wasn’t creating enough chaos for kindergarteners on their first week of after school, the roof in the cafeteria started leaking. And by leaking I actually mean pouring. I have never seen a ceiling leak so bad, it was leaking as fast and heavy as the rain was falling outside. So there we were caught in the middle trying to calm down 50 kids and keep everything organized in the small cafeteria. [Read more…] about Introduce a Little Anarchy
Striving For Perfection
Over the past month I have done a lot of soul searching. I have had many conversations with God about where exactly I am heading. A lot of it has led me to one conclusion; I am broken. I am busted up and falling apart and in need of some help. Last week I was reading something and someone made an interesting claim. They claimed to be perfect. They said because they had accepted Jesus they had become perfect. Even more than that, they made the claim many times. It wasn’t just a wording mistake, they really believed it.
