| Introduction | I believe our experiences shape our souls more than anything else. Experience speaks both truth and lie and is the single greatest determiner to how we will choose to move forward in this journey of life. My quest is to sort the truths from the lies and follow them to their telos. My experience has taught me three basic things: 1) I exist 2) there is truth 3) God is real. Holding on to these truths I seek to engage deeply and honestly in this journey of life. Somedays I do a better job of that than other. But each day is another opportunity to lean into the hope, beauty and fear of life. This is what I will do. |
