Today, I'm sharing the eulogy I delivered at my Dad’s memorial service in February of 2018, but I’m also pausing to reflect on what those lessons look like seven years later, as I turn 50 years old.

My dad spent just shy of fifty years (the full span of my life) in full-time ministry. He was a man of unimpeachable integrity, contagious joy, and a gentleness that wasn't weakness but the result of a lifetime of submission to the Spirit. In this episode, I trace the direct lines from his life to mine through the second fence he taught me to build, the relational equity he modeled, the way he said hard things without ever making you doubt his love, and above all, the Gospel that was the center of everything he did and everything he was.

I also share something I've never said publicly outside of my eventual book… a moment early in his Parkinson's diagnosis that stopped me cold and has never left me.

This episode is for anyone whose father pointed them to Jesus. And for anyone who is still becoming who someone they loved taught them to be.
