About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to love mercy, do justly and walk humbly with God

ABOUT ME

We love Jesus. We love to jam with friends (I play guitar, a little mandolin & djembe), play softball and just chill with our homies...
We also make and sell hemp jewelry, so if you know how to make it we're always trying to learn new techniques...

PHILOSOPHY

We are Christ-followers. Not your stereotypical judgmental churchy-type Christians. We love people unreservedly and hope for the same in return. We're generous and want to leave this world a better place than when we found it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am not but I know I AM, by Louie Giglio. The Bible. The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey.
Movies- Shaun of the Dead, Erik The Viking, Office Space.
Music-I'm very eclectic. Mike Younger. Aranda. Anything from Aaron Shust to ZZ Top. Current favorites are David Crowder Band, Charlie Hall, etc. I have Brad Kilman in my cd player right now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Helping tsunami victims in southern India in 2005 was pretty high on my list, as well as working with orphans in Sierra Leone. I don't know if either qualify as amazing, but they were certainly meaningful to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hate the game, not the playa.
The one thing people in their 20's don't realize is that life is SO much better in your 30's!!!
Go to Africa. It will change your life.
That bum on the street corner you pass everyday without even thinking about it? Ask him his name. He has a story.
Never be too stubborn to give people the benefit of the doubt.
When in doubt, err on the side of love.
Jesus loves porn stars.
