Chase VISION... provision will follow.

About Me

I like a good pair of slacks. I sing and play piano. I was made by a God who set out the course of my life before I was even a bun in my mother's oven. And I owe Him nothing less than everything. I forget that sometimes and mess up. But His grace has been extended to me time and time again. And that's how I remain alive today. Plus, I drink milk. That helps too.

My Interests

"I like poetry, scotch, and my good friend Baxter here..."
-Ron Burgundy

Cheese, air in a can, shoes, pianos, music, chocolate fountains, belinnis, thought-provoking articles, shiny things, sticks, rain, podcasts, green, things that move in the wind, things that shake, things that bake, and Malachi 1.

I'd like to meet:

Jesus. But all in good time. For now, Will Ferrell, Maury Ballstein, and Chuck Norris.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment
