Love God, Love Others.

About Me

"Life is art." -- Dr. Wolfe. The time has come to redefine. Redefine everything I know. Rethink everthing I've learned. Put away the systematic categorization of people and the theology we've been told is correct. To stop separating life into parts and start writing my story on the canvas of the time God has given me. This is me now. It is the end of who I am. The beginning of who I am called to be.

My Interests

Tilling, Planting and Fertilizing; to see the new things sprout, grow and hopefully flourish. My Beautiful Wife. My Gifted, Sensative and Crazy Tailer, My Strong, Cool and Curly Jackson, My Sweet, Loving and Adorable Ellia and our stupid cat, Allister. My Glorious God, The Hope Of My Salvation and Provider Of All I Need.

I'd like to meet:

The Pioneers of the Profoundly Deep Things of God. The Lost Ones Searching. The Poor Ones Needing. The Meek Ones Clinging To Life By The Strength Of Their Faith. The Iconics Revolutionizing Hope. The Ones Who Have The Balls To Buck The "Ethics" Of The Former Generation. Oh, and the creators and producers of KY Jelly, that stuff is slick.

Music:

I enjoy just about everything. Twangy country is of the devil, though.

Movies:

Pirates, Superman Return, Happy Feet was disappointing. Elizabethtown, 60B yah, 60B. . . .

Television:

Lost, Notre Dame football, Steelers Football, Grey's Anatomy, ER, ESPN

Books:

I am currently reading "The Hobbit" to my son Tailer and looking for a good book for me to read to myself. Any Suggestions???

Heroes:

People Redefining Christian Life.
