Gender	Male
Occupation	Music...for church!
Location	Milwaukie, OR, United States
Introduction	I used to spend time arming myself with knowledge that I could use to win an argument or debate. I find myself now chiefly and simply concerned with loving other people. Life is easier this way. I still like a good debate/conversation, especially when it relates to Christianity and the things we do as a part of it, but there is so much less worry and anxiety involved when you give up not loving others.
Interests	Reading, guitar, games of just about any kind, softball, tennis, table tennis, anything else that involves hitting things with sticks or rackets, hitting things in general, etc.
Favorite movies	Tombstone, Gran Torino, and one scene out of The Wrestler that had me all choked up.
Favorite music	A little of most things, and a lot of some. Most country, though, just makes me shake my head. Any genre where a popular song can include the line "Take your cat and leave my sweater" ought not be taken too seriously.
Favorite books	When I'm not reading my "fun" books (sci-fi, fantasy, geeky stuff like that), I read books you would find under Christian Living or Religion at Barnes and Noble. You can't find the good ones at Christian bookstores, because Christian bookstore owners don't like to carry things that rock the boat. Also, they need floor space for all the Precious Moments stuff and other trinkets.
