Today marks the 4th anniversary to my amazing bride Michelle. It has already been an incredible adventure and I'm excited to see what the future holds for us. In addition to being my number one person for sermon feedback (a never ending assignment, trust me), Michelle also has incredible faith (and will listen to my craziest of ideas with a straight face), incredible integrity, and endless amounts of love and humor. She makes my life an absolute joy to live. Happy anniversary Michelle! Read More

Many of you have heard by now, at least if you were at Third Format last week, but I want to officially announce that Michelle is pregnant again!

We have a hunch that this might be a little girl, but we won't know for sure till Christmas time. Our new little bundle of joy is expected to burst onto the scene May 12.

I happened to be teaching at the time. Gavin immediately started looking around when he heard my voice and when he didn't see me he started crying. They ended up turning the tv on mute.
Fast forward a day to Sunday night. I pick up Gavin from the children's ministry in Gilbert and they tell me another… Read More

As I've watched Gavin grow and develop over the last nine months, I've come to a shocking realization: adults could never be babies. Let me explain.
I don't know what the first memory that you have is. I'm not counting what you've seen on home movies or in pictures, but what you can actually remember yourself. Most of us start at a few years old and anything beyond that is left up to our parents' memories. So I guess you could say that babies have an extreme sense of short term memory. Normally this phrase implies something very negative. We criticize people for having short term memory or we fear that we'll suffer from it when we get older.… Read More
