Shut Up and Just Do It

“Shut up and Just Do It” is my interpretation of this Art Williams (Billionaire) speech given back in 1987. Taking this to heart and thought you might want to do the same.

While I don’t know Matt Chandler personally, he is the pastor of one of the sweetest churches in Dallas and has quite a following on the internet of people watching his leadership and growth from afar.

I Heart Michael Phelps

Ashley and I are sitting here busting a gut. Michael Phelps seemingly impossible 8th Gold Metal has just been won in this 2008 Olympics. The relay race was amazing, but what we are laughing ridiculously about is the fact that right after the last leg touched, Michael Phelps yells “Let’s go!”. We think he is saying “Let’s Go, I can do this all year long.” Seriously, Michael Phelps wants more. Unreal.

Settling In In West Palm Beach, Florida

West Palm Beach, Florida is a fantastic place to begin my next phase in ministry. Settling in at this church has been easy, and the staff has been more than welcoming. For me, as expected, it has been easy. Ashley on the other hand has had to deal with keeping the kids for long periods of time with little relief as I spend long hours meeting everyone, putting out some fires, and finishing up a 6 month launch of LifeFaithFusion.com For her so far, it has been what she feared. That will change.

Fallen But Not Forgotten

// July 31st, 2007 // No Comments » // Christianity, Community, Family, Leadership, Management, Ministry, Miscellaneous, Parenting, Personal, Prayer

In the decision to move to Florida to work for Christ Fellowship, I had to deal with some feelings of unworthiness that I had not faced in a long time. When God tees up a sweet shot for you, it is sometimes tough to think you are the right person to take the swing. In my case, I felt unworthy because of my falleness. I am very familiar these days with my weakness because it rears its head daily in my life in the little things. You know, parenting, finances, relationships, and work. So in the midst of working out if the move to Florida was right for us, I just felt this overwhelming fear that God could not possibly use me for a work as significant as what seems to await me in West Palm Beach.
