I started writing the music for this song when I got my first guitar in 1992.  The lyrics came together over the next 15 years as I recalled the day my older brother told me goodbye before moving far away to Chicago to start his first job after finishing college.

Brother Chicago

I'm a pastor, dad, husband, and child of God.  I'm broken, but  blessed. The cracks are where the Light shines through.

My mission is to help people grow closer to God with every breath and step I take. I gave my life to Christ at an early age and have grown closer through the years, spurred on by the study of the Bible, my church family, and the Chrysalis and Walk to Emmaus Communities. I accepted the call to full -time ministry as a pastor in 1999 and have served 4 different churches in Georgia. Music, preaching, and teaching are the heart of my ministry.

Outside of the pulpit, I enjoy many hobbies that help me blow off steam.  These include martial arts, woodworking, blacksmithing, gardening, cooking, and being creative.  I'm a jack of all trades and a master of none.  My philosophy is use what you have, do it yourself if you can, learn something in the process, and have lots of fun.  This channel is a place to share it all with you.
