We pray for more faith, so that we might someday move a mountain. But do we love? We hold on to hope

About Me

RevdFaith



I'm just a guy trying to live my life as a Christ follower.

My Interests



I'd like to meet:


I want to meet:

Jesus Christ because that would mean that I made it.

Moses because I'd like to hear about what it looked like when the Red sea split apart and how nervous he was right before God did His thing.

The boy Jesus used to feed five thousand hungry men (as well as a bunch of women and children) in John 6. I want to know what happened to all the left overs.

Paul because I often wonder if he dealt with other Christ followers that didn't accept him after God changed his life from a Christian murderer to a Christ follower. I wonder if he had a hard time forgetting and getting beyond his past sometimes?

Bono simply because he isn't wasting his fame on himself.

President George W. Bush because I'd like to hear it from him how he deals with his enemies, media, family, friends, voices and the parts of the world that don't agree with his stance. Whether you are for him or against him, you have to agree that he isn't afraid of a fight and he's willing to stand up for what he believes in. I'd like to know how he handles those times he feels all alone and afraid.

I'd also like to meet Billy Graham and ask how he kept the pride from getting ahold of him.

Leave Me A Comment!

Tait Band - Great Guys with big hearts

Toby Mac - Still bringin' it

POD - Raisin' the bar over and over again

Olivia the Band - These Hawaiians are as real as it gets

Audio Adrenaline - Because they make listening fun

Chris Tomlin - Helps me worship God

Charlie Hall - Helps me worship God and he's a homie. Represent Boy!

Movies:

Well, the boys came with me to Colorado for an event where I'm scheduled to speak. We're 5 minutes into the trip and they look thrilled. They got a little more excited when I told them that I would show them the man of authority. This man is the Kansas Turnpike Authority (at least he looked official). We finally made it after 200,000,000 hours in the car (figures calculated by Reese). They enjoyed spending the night in the hotel and were ready to get to the mountain that I'd been promising. Finally we made it and that's when they realized that it's cold in the mountains. They threatened to look like this at everyone unless I took them sledding tomorrow.

Day 2

Kellan woke us up this morning. After he found the camera. Oops, the camera's backwards. Reese, say CHEESE! What a view for three boys from Oklahoma

Finally, they were where they've wanted to be all along. Well, two runs was all it took before Kellan was crying and Reese was tired of the cold.

Television:


TV:

Extreme Makeover - Home Edition

ESPN's Make-a-wish (I shed tears every time I see either of these)

ESPN morning highlights

Fox News

We have actually produced our own TV show called "rev'd". It's a reality program (real reality) about doing what Jesus said - Go!

It won the "People's Choice" award for best documentary at the Religious Broadcasters Convention this past February. The pilot episode is being aired (in rotation) on DirecTV's NRB network and soon to air on Russian Satellite networks (after it's translated into Russian).

Discussions are being held with various networks about an exclusive deal that would help create a full season (13 episodes) to be aired on one network.

You can help us by requesting that your favorite network take a look at it

Books:


Books:


The Bible
It's the number one best-selling book of all time. It's also the book I try to live by. Some days are easier than others (if you know what I mean).

Ragamuffin Gospel by Brennan Manning
Dude, you've got to read this book. If you've ever been burned-out on "religion", it is a must-read.

Blood Covenant by E.W. Kenyan.
It helped me understand what Christ did for me and who I am in Christ.

The Quest by KP Westmoreland
Not because it changed my life, but because I wrote it and your buying it helps feed my family. Hey, at least I'm honest about it.

Heroes:


Heroes:



My heroes are my boys, Reese and Kellan. As their daddy, I want to be their hero. However, they are probably more mine than I am theirs. They've been the living example of God's grace to me. The two of them are the funniest, most talented and best boys (children) on the planet. I know your parents would not agree, or if you are a parent you probably don't think so. But what do you and your parents know. I'm telling the truth. They are the best!

Yes, there are lot of people who made my hero list but came in far below Reese and Kellan. People like: Billy Graham, Mother Teresa, Bono, various mentors, a few Presidents, etc. Yea, there several people who made my list but after Reese and Kellan, everyone else just seems to be someone who did something that I was impressed with. Reese and Kellan are true heroes to me.
