Do you ever have those moments where you run across someone and you think “wow, God has blessed that person with some major talent!” It makes you want to try just a little harder to excel in your own areas of talent. Like a little dose of inspiration and motivation. And it’s even cooler when [...]

The other day I had a humbling revelation. One that I’m not very proud to admit but am ready to accept.
I am a “star performer.”

I took a student out to Sonic the other day and we sat outside just chatting about life…school, youth group, the upcoming summer, family, future plans….and it was so fulfilling.

My blood is boiling right now. I went to McDonalds today to drop off a RedBox movie I rented last night and laying in one of the entrance windows was this bright fire red-orange violation ticket that instantly caught my eye.
