“He humbled himself and became obedient to death-even death on a cross!” Philippians 2:8. In these last days of Lent I’ve been living in the passion story with all of my Cornerstone friends.  We’ve been taking the steps with Jesus towards the cross as seen in Matthew 26 and 27…reading the story bit by bit, [...]

Been in a lot of conversations lately with friends Brandon Frenzel and Jospeh Nader about the downward journey in following Jesus.  Brandon actually wrote a really good post on this you should read.  We’ve been talking about how what looks like the way down is actually the way up…and vice versa.  Its the upside down [...]

On coming off of Leslie’s marathon yesterday I’ve got two things to say: 26.2 miles is a loooooong way to run. My wife has got some serious guts. I’m just so proud of Leslie and it was an amazing to watch her prepare over these last 6 months and then accomplish her goal. She ran [...]

Temptations.  We face them every day and they look different for each of us.  But I would say in general that each of us wish that we did not have to face them.  imagine how great our life would be if we did not face any temptations at all.  But that’s just not the way [...]

Sleep…it’s not over-rated.  It’s really good.  But with a 5 year old and two 2 year olds it’s rare to make it through the night without having to get up with someone.  Odds are just against a full night of sleep. Lately our beautiful little ones have fallen into a pattern of coming into our [...]

It’s gonna be a good day according to Grace and Liza.  They just both trotted out of bed into my lap so we had fun taking a few pictures on Photo Booth.  Nothing else in the world like hearing the pitter pattter of two little girls feet coming down the hall, hearing them whisper to [...]

I’m getting pumped about Man Weekend…coming up a week from today.  I’ll be heading down to Camp Chandler with about 60 other guys from Cornerstone Church.  I wouldn’t really call this a “retreat” because we are not quite retreating from anything.  Instead we’re looking at our lives head on…and taking some ground back in our [...]

We had a great evening with about 150 other friends at Journey Bible Classes last night.  We started out the night praying together and just quietly listening to the roar of the rain pounding down on the roof above us.  But the best part of the night was when we each spent about 10 minutes [...]
