“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself.” -C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

We shouldn't allow one flat tire to keep us from seeing the other three that are working great. How do we keep our eyes focused on what really matters?

When I'm surrounded by mountains I'm reminded of just how small I am. And then I remember that God chose us - and I've never felt stronger. How can we stay focused on that day to day?

My good friend Brad Hilligoss joins me this week! A candle doesn't seem to be that bright when you're in a fully lighted room, but once that room goes dark the candle makes all the difference. How do we do a better job of soaking up that light no matter what? 

Our first Sunday edition podcast where we take a look into Genesis 45:3-11 and how we can live life a bit better by letting go and loving life at its core. 

People invest money and time and effort into real estate and expect a return on their investment. Should people be the same? Should we expect a return when we invest in others? William Voelker and Andrew Hunt join me on this episode and they're awesome. 

Sometimes life gives you some colors you don’t love, but what are you going to do with them to make them pretty?

Chicken nuggets are awesome, until you eat too many and puke everywhere. Is media consumption the same way? My best friend and fantastic human being Tanner Boesiger joins us this episode to discuss social media and when it can become too much of an indulgence.

Sometimes no means next opportunity. How do we keep going when we are stopped?
