My goal is to restore rest and wonder to the worn out.
If you’re like me, you’re worn out. Worn out from trying to be more productive, achieve more significance, reach your potential. The reality is, most nights you’re hoping to drown out the failures and regrets of the last twelve hours long enough to enjoy some chili.
Jesus says if you follow him, “you’ll find rest for your soul.” Once you find rest, you start recovering something you lost from when you were a kid—wonder. There’s magic and beauty in this world if we can rest long enough to see it.
I write about what I’m reaching for: a gospel message that restores an identity that rests while you achieve.
I grew up in Philly, and have since lived and worked in Nashville, Indy, Fort Myers, and now in Boise, where I pastor and live with my wife, Liz, and our daughters. My pastimes include being disappointed by the Dallas Cowboys, finding brunch spots with Liz, audio books, all things peanut butter, character-driven sitcoms, and traveling.
