Lately, I've imagined myself going back in time to have a talk with my 30 something self to see if he would have any advice for me during this season of life. It came down to 3 things. You can use the same 3 things to get unstuck and move forward in your own life.
Today is the 5 year anniversary of my wife, Karen, passing away. Here’s what I did today to remember her and other things that continue to help me navigate the grieving process. Thank you all for your love, support, and prayers.
There are lots of spoilers in this episode as I compare and contrast the finales of Ted Lasso, Cheers, Friends, Seinfeld, and Guardians of the Galaxy. Some doors are opened. Some doors are closed. Some just leave a tiny crack.
Have you ever used the phrase “it is what it is?” Here’s why it one of my least favorite and most favorite sayings.
I’ve been thinking about schedule, how I choose to invest my time and the difference between being busy and active. Are you busy or active?
The past 5 years, around this time, I have hit a health plateau. Something has happened in my mind and I just quit going to the gym and eating healthy. Today, I got some insight into why that had happened and how I plan to overcome it. Here’s how I’m getting past the Plateau.
Most people would think of me as a “glass half full” kind of person, but the reality is that, internally, I’ve been a “glass half empty” guy all of my life. Here’s what I’m doing about it.
At the beginning of the year, I set a habit goal of exercising 30 minutes a day 6 days a week. It occurred to me today that I have updated that daily habit to be more focused and move even closer to my end goal. What adjustments do you need to make in your habits?
For the 4th year in a row I have lost 20 lbs with diet and exercise. What am I doing now to make sure I don’t gain it back and have to lose the same 20 next year? It’s about focusing on the process over your progress.
Yesterday was Karen’s birthday and it was a good day of remembering. Plus, I’ve been working through some bargaining in my grief journey lately. How can we set our intentions to relive some uncertainty and move forward?
I'm almost a week into giving up coffee and results have not been what I expected. On this episode, I talk about side effects I thought I would have, the side effects I am having, and the change in my quality of sleep. I'm starting to see a major difference in my energy and thinking. What did you give up for Lent?

Over the past several weeks I have felt God calling me to something. Something that will require me to be physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually prepared for. I've felt this pull. This desire. Like a quest. Leading into Lent I was thinking about what I would give up and that's when all the streams crossed and I realized I was about to bite off more than I could chew. What is God calling you to these days? What's your quest? What are you giving up for Lent?

As many of you have heard, there has been an around the clock revival happening on the campus of Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky. It's been an incredible thing to witness from afar. I had the opportunity to interview several folks from Southern Wesleyan who got to attend over the weekend and get their perspective. That conversation sparked lots of thoughts like: who's cleaning the bathrooms and who's running security? It's a great reminder that when God moves it can create logistical nightmares in our lives. Revival is going to make everyone uncomfortable in one way or another. How do we prepare for that and what are the 3 choices we face when the Holy Spirit moves? I'd love your thoughts on this and the revival. This morning, Asbury released an update on their plans moving forward at this link. You can listen to my interview with the Southern Wesleyan Students on the SWU Soul Stories podcast here.
If you’ve followed my story then you know I am a big fan of Michael Hyatt’s work. His new book, Mind Your Mindset, with his daughter, Megan, is a look at the voice inside our head and why it tells us the stories that it does. This book reinforced many things that I have learned and put into practice through my counseling sessions over the past 7 months. I hope it is a game changer for you as well.

Thanks to Jon Cole and the amazing leaders who allowed me to share at this year’s Western New York District Youth Winter Retreat. It was a phenomenal experience and God was with us. Listen for more details.
I had one of those early morning epiphanies the other day about forgiveness and how forgiving myself led to major mental health breakthroughs on my grief journey. Here's why you need to forgive yourself and start turning off those "What if" valves.
4 years ago today, my wife passed away. Karen was an incredible person and it occurred to me that many of you never met her. On this episode, I give you the lowdown and the background on the woman who captured my heart and changed all of our lives.
It was fun to sit down and chat briefly with Glen Robinson at the recent Wesleyan Pastor's Gathering. Glen is the Executive Pastor of Leadership Development at Crosspoint Church in Lynchburg, Virginia where one of my accountability partners, Josh Ratliff, is the Lead Pastor. Glen and I have many connections. He is one of my wife's first cousins and also interned with me at Central First Wesleyan Church(now Alive Wesleyan) during his time at Southern Wesleyan. Glen talks about his ministry, family, and his recent sabbatical in this episode.
Pickens View Wesleyan Church just finished our Live Nativity and it was an awesome event. Here are my takeaways.
Yesterday while frying my last turkey of the season I realized I needed to make one simple change to cook it more easily than before. What’s one simple change you need to make?
