Hope is Alive!
Hope is alive! Today, I’m emotionally processing the recent death of my dear grandma, Nancy Breznau. I was privileged to be her pastor for five years. The older she grew, the more resolute in hope she became. . .

2 Vital Guides for the 2023 Trail
I love to hike through forests, across mountain tundra, and along crystal-clear bubbling streams. A highlight of this past summer was my hike (and mild climb) to the summit of Byers Peak outside of Fraser, Colorado. The air was crisp, the snow was white, and the sun was bright. A picture-perfect, beautiful day for time on a well-worn trail!
But I would never begin a hike up a mountain without two guides: A map and a trail. In the mountainous, treacherous, and exciting trek of life, God provides two essential guides for His children. . . .

We Adore | Christmas Poem 2022
This past week, I penned a poem to point my heart back toward the great and grand story of the Christ.
Christmas poems are something I enjoy sharing with my friends. So, here’s a video of this spoken word piece I’ve entitled “We Adore.” I’m praying you, too, are pointed near to the heart of God’s redeeming grace. . .

If You Came Out of Hiding
If you came out of hiding
What would you find there?
Who would others see?
The real you
Your heart, mind true
Your past through all the distance, too

Jack, Our Beloved Son
My heart is so full as my arms wrap around my son, this child of my heart.
He is not of “my flesh and bone,” but by God’s unbelievable grace, He is now my very own.
I think of what Joseph, the adoptive daddy to Jesus, must have felt. Looking into those eyes, caressing His cheeks, and softening the midnight cries…
“How can this be?” he must have wondered.
And so do I.
