Relentlessly pursuing Christ and His Cause
I love the irony of it. On a day where little goblins, micro vampires and tiny ghosts wander our streets looking for treats is the same day we unleash GOSPEL Journey Maui on the wonderful world of youth ministry!
It’s hard to believe that it’s been ten months since we filmed this reality series on [...]
I was a jerk to my wife a few nights ago. I was tired, just got back from a trip and blah, blah, blah the flesh took over and I was, in the words of my son, a crabby patty. What made this really unfortunate is that my little mini meltdown happened in front of [...]
Right now I’m typing these words from Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. I’m still recovering from the late night party in Sin City. Zane, myself and Media Tech’s film crew were out to almost 2 in the morning filming a segment for the conference called “Shreddin’ the Gnar in Vegas.” Basically [...]
I will never forget Rodney. He was a second degree black belt in Kung Fu. The dude could literally work three numb chucks at the same time. His hands were so big that he could hold on to two in one hand. Rodney spun those babies so fast that they looked like airplane propellers [...]
A few weeks ago I was in the gym. One of the fitness instructors walked up to me and started asking me gym guy questions like,

“How’s your workout going?”

The situation is serious. Many IRAs are shrinking. People are losing their homes, their jobs…everything. And it could get worse before it gets better. Some people are talking recession. A few are even alluding to the “D” word, the great “D” word.
Let’s be honest. It is a scary time right now, especially if your used [...]
I am doing two youth leader trainings (one today and one tommorrow) in Atlanta at the ESPN Zone. I love this particular training. It’s called “How to turn your youth group into a reality series!”
During this youth leader focused equipping session I train youth leaders how to unleash the power of discussion in [...]
My good friend and fellow speaker at Dare 2 Share is getting married today to a wonderful girl named Rachel. I am travelling to Minnesota for the wedding. What an amazing couple they make! They are fire and ice, yin and yang, strength and grace…and all that cool stuff. But what makes them shine most [...]
I was telling Jeremy the other day how I needed help in reaching this world for Christ and he came up with a solution.
“Hey dad, how about this? I will train my class how to do the gospel hand?” (The gospel hand is a simple way to share the gospel that I learned to [...]
