Relying on God has to begin all over again every day as if nothing yet had been done. -C.S. Lewis

About Me

Let's see... part writer, part paralegal, part military, part bowler, part warrior, part romantic, but I'm all Christian. I have two great passions in my life- God, and the people He's put in my life. That's pretty much it. The rest is kind of sketchy. ;)

My Interests

Spending time with my family and friends, and working in the various ministries God has placed in my life. Biblical theology and history, American history, and some world history. Anything artistic, except for painting/drawing, which I am notably terrible at.

I'd like to meet:

Why... you, of course! And Celine Dion. I think we could all agree on that.

Steven Curtis Chapman, Toby Mac, Casting Crowns, Building 429, Leeland, Michael Buble, Jeremy Camp, Matthew West, Chris Tomlin, Fireflight, Mercy Me, Creed, DC Talk, Tom Petty.

There are more, I'm sure.

Other than the news, I really don't watch that much television.
