blog away...

So my good friend Casey has encouraged me to start blogging. Considering my wife has been on me fairly consistently about my lack of blogability (just made that up) for our family page...I'm not so sure this is one of my better ideas. But here goes nothing!

I'm pretty passionate about Jesus and about family...and all the ways my faith should impact my relationship with my beautiful wife and my two amazing boys. Mostly, I'd love to see a generation of young pastors model a family life that is a faithful representation and picture of the gospel. I'd love to see them make it the MAIN thing too! I'd love to see them buck the trend of compartmentalization (work, ministry, leisure, family, etc.), integrating family life with everything else they do while inviting others to peek in and take a look.  

culture shift

I do this so imperfectly, but it's what God has put on my heart. So hopefully in the days ahead, I can string a few coherent sentences together and (just maybe) encourage other Christian men to love their wives and families in a way that is very attractive and contageous to a culture that pushes them to love everything else! Although I have no pics to post at this very moment, I'll get some up soon enough. But I'm warning you, my kids are pretty sinkin' cute (they got their looks from their momma, thank goodness)!

Talk to you soon.
