About Me

Life is crazy busy these days, but I guess that's a good problem to have. Writing, hosting radio shows, doing side work as a consultant, and serving as a youth minister keep me moving. Someday, I may get to go to the bathroom w/o a cell phone. That said, I promise that I'm not one of those people who spends the entire day "w/ you" while on the phone with someone else.Life is good, mostly because God is good. I've got a great family, wonderful friends (all of whom are gifted and brilliant in one way or another), a deep love for all things related to college sports (especially BIG TEN football), If you know anything about Gold Star Chili, Grater's Ice Cream or the Big Red Machine there are major bonus points for that. Other passions include: Jesus, painting & general creating, writing, music, politics and the beach. Otherwise, I'm waiting for the chance to live every little girls dream, having a new puppy, a pony and a reason to put a tiara on every once in a whileHere's the thing; I'm all about a relaxed approach to life. After all, it's just way too much work trying to be one of the sexy people. God bless, godspeed, live long and prosper!

My Interests

I am passionate about my faith, my friends, & my family. That passion generally shows itself in missions, ministry, or painting, experiencing,and creating in ways that glorify those I care about especially my creator.

Sometimes in life we think we have something. No, we know we have something: something precious, special, valuable and rare. A tiny spark that must not be allowed to go out. Instinctively, we protect ...
