The outdoors is a passion of mine and I love spending time in the wilderness. The quiet of the forest relaxes me and the smell of pine trees invigorates my soul. I enjoy taking long walks with God and having quiet time with Him. I seem to hear his voice […]

Having a Windshield Perspective
Think back to when you started to learn how to drive. Your parents or grandparents probably took you somewhere that was large and empty so you could focus on driving without many distractions. For me it was my Mom and the St. Raphael’s Church parking lot. I would slowly wind […]
Content or Complacent?
Growing up I had a dream to play in the big leagues. By the time I was ten years old I had my entire life mapped out. I was going to make it to the show by 20, play until I was 40, and then buy a huge piece of […]
Embrace it Because You Can’t Erase it
Every January for the past six years I have attended a weekend men’s retreat put on by Unlimited Potential, Inc. This year it was held in Cave Creek, AZ, but in the past we always met up in Prescott, AZ at a campground. The unique thing about the campground is […]

Are You Producing Good Fruit?
Last night my two sons and I got into a fight over a basketball game we were playing in the front yard. It was them versus me and first team to 50 wins. They were up the whole game, but then Dad started to close the gap and soon it […]
The Man in the Mirror
Over the weekend my family and I had the opportunity to spend time together at a youth retreat up in Prescott, AZ. The pastor they brought in did a phenomenal job telling an insightful story of David and Goliath. He spent less time on the battle itself and more on […]
