About me

Gender Male
Occupation Musician/Poet
Location Zion (Chicago), Illinois, United States
Introduction I'm a relatively simple guy who's spent plenty of time wading discontent in the shallow end. Over the past 4 years or so I've come to the realization that the "deep end" is much more adventurous...though holding your breath for too long can make you a bit light-headed and can cause your face to turn blue! I've been given the gift of a fabulous wife that has stood true and held her breath right alongside me, and the two of us have been given the gifts of three awesome kids that love us unconditionally!!!
Interests God, Truth, Family, The Arts, Philosophy, Poetic Pursuit, Creative Communications
Favorite Movies Gladiator (Integrity & Fearlessness), Napoleon Dynamite ("It's a Liger...pretty much my favorite animal."), Luther (Against the grain for the sake of Truth)
Favorite Music Vertical Horizon ("Everything you wanted me to hide is everything that makes me feel alive..."), David Crowder Band (Lost in the poetic pursuit of The Poet), 38 Acres (the joy of being part of the pursuit)
Favorite Books Roaring Lambs, A New Kind of Christian (B. McLaren), The Story We Find Ourselves In (B. McLaren), The Oath (F. Peretti), A Generous Orthodoxy (B. McLaren), The Hobbit (J.R.R. Tolkien)

That can't really be a fish you're standing on, can it?

Well, man cannot stand on bread alone.
