He is my everything. say im weak and need a crutch, and ill say that humanity needs a crutch, a Savior, something more to live for than what it is. Jesus is life, and knowing and following Him is the greatest thrill ride anyone can ever experience.ive done just about all there was to do in the party scene, lived the way the world told me to, and all i found was emptiness. Jesus found me and made me full; full of life.He's the way....deal wit it.i've found in my life that there are many streets to walk down in the pursuit of satisfaction and peace, but there is only one thing that satisfies.Jesus...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

BERNIE KOSAR - I know not many people want to meet Bernie. If you grew up a Browns fan in the 80's though, you want to meet him.CHARLES SPURGEON - if you've ever read spurgeons stuff, youll realize that there truly is no genre of teacher or writer that matches his style and beauty in painting an accurate portrayal of Jesus. He was a word artist and a sincere lover of Jesus.BILLY GRAHAM - ok so i know youve heard of him, but have you ever REALLY heard him or read his books.....amazing. the clarity he brings to the Gospel and the crystal clear picture of Jesus that he paints is a thing to behold.MARK DRISCOLL - pastor of mars hill church in seattle. probably the best speaker ive heard. has a great balance of Biblical faithfulness and cultural relevance (to quote mark himself).RAVI ZACCHARIAS - WOW! dudes ministry is amazing. my brain usually hurts after listening to him speak.MY WIFES DAD - i'd like to tell him what an idiot he is for missing out on a relationship with one of the most amazing and beautiful people i've ever known - my wife Christi.TOMMY BARNETT- he's had an amazing impact in my life, a person who's helped teach me how to reach the "least of these". i'd like an opportunity to say thanks www.phoenixfirst.org.DAVID PERKINS- ive met david and he is a great man of God. he is the founder of Desperation at New Life Church in Colorado Springs, his ministry has sparked a passion of pursuit in my life. www.desperationonline.comthe guys who wrote "EVERY MAN'S BATTLE" - this book changed my life and brought me closer to God.the guys from XXXCHURCH.COM- an amazing "real" ministry to men dealing with porn. remember, every time you masturbate, God kills a kitten.for all the HOTPOCKETS lovers out there for all those who remember the running man, coda, kid n play, and seventh grade dances wearing your cross colours gear. this was my favorite rap song when i was 13.
