  • My Crystal

    I feel I can do anything when I look into her eyes: they are so beautiful, I can not stop thinking about them. I am pretty sure I would not be alive now had I not met her. She loves God and is an exemplary Jesus follower. She makes me want to be a better Read more

  • Sometimes

    Sometimes I wonder about people and the way they can act. Some people ignore you like you do not exist when they used to be nice to you. So it makes me wonder were they being genuine from when you first met, or were they just tolerating you? Some people think they rule the world, Read more

  • Passing The Past

    It is 4am on Friday morning, and all is fairly quiet except for the occasional snore from the dog. Well, the ceiling fan is pretty loud but it is better than extreme silence. I woke up hot and could not go back to sleep, hence my first post in a while. What can I say Read more

  • Three and Out

    Hello, this is Chris! It is with great honor that I introduce my wife Crystal again to you as she has more to say. Without further ado, here she is: We live in a world that makes time for what it deems important. A few weekends ago, Chris and I were able to go to Read more

    Yesterday I heard someone speak that I never thought I would hear from. Crystal and I are at the Global Leadership Summit in Oklahoma City. The person I heard speak on live video was Coach K. Now, I am not a Duke fan; in fact, I am the opposite of a Duke fan. I am Read more

  • Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be a pastor; let alone a lead pastor of a church of my own! If you asked my younger self, I dreamed of being a pediatric oncologist (a children’s cancer doctor). I knew I wanted to help and serve people, but more than that, through Read more

  • Car Guy

    I am a car guy, and if you have ever seen my car you can tell that. My Daddy was a real car guy: meaning, he could buy a car, fix it up, engine and all, and he could resell it if he wanted to. Of course, my Daddy had the tools and the place Read more

  • What is the last thing you learned? I have learned you cannot choose those you want to like you, nor can you control those who do not like you. Sure, everyone wants to be liked, but in the end it does not matter. As long as you have unconditional love for yourself you will do Read more
