As we circled around a small side table, leaning in as we chatted and dared to dream, the fireworks blared in the background. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! We turned around shocked. Fireworks this late in July!? On this part of the island? That never happens. But of course it would on this night. This very special evening. One that goes down in the books as one that I’ll remember forever. The kind of evening that you journal about the next morning,... Read more

I’ve wanted to share on this topic for a little bit but forgot about it until I was reminded by a friend of mine who has a book coming out on the very thing. It’s called Through A Man’s Eyes. The reason that reminded me of this topic, is if I had to think of the most popular or frequent email I get it’d be this very thing. The email I get over and over again is from finances, girlfriends,... Read more

There’s something about summer that just has a different vibe and aura to it. A large reason for that is a lot of us have jobs that change structure during the summer like getting summers off as a teacher, or I know my publisher lets folks go early on Friday to enjoy the day. For whatever reason, summer is just flat out amazing (and especially so in Washington State where I was born and raised). One thing though I’ve been... Read more

I stood side stage in the dark auditorium with tears rushing down my cheeks as I listened to Britt Nicole sing and share her heart with these girls from Oahu. These girls were dancing and lifting their hands without a care in the world. Free, true worship. No one cared what others thought, they just wanted to praise Jesus. This one girl, she must have been 14, got up on stage with Britt and started dancing like a free woman.... Read more

I’ve had the idea for this video for the past couple months but I had never gotten around to planning it out. For some reason I had some spare time today so I mapped it out and then I thought it’d be fun to go get drone shots and then read scripture that reminds me of whatever footage I got. Here’s the finished product! Would love to do more of these, so let me know if you guys enjoy them. (more…) Read more

I am an introvert. I said it. Truth be told, there it is. I never thought I was growing up. In fact, I didn’t really know I was until two years ago, when I went to an overnight event with no one I knew. I was so timid. So shy. I really wouldn’t have minded hanging out in my bedroom all by myself all weekend. I mean, having to meet new people and being in a huge crowd of people... Read more

Hi guys! Over the past six months a lot of you guys have hit me and Alyssa up asking about Maui. Either you’re coming on a trip, you’re here now, or thinking about planning a trip. Either way I figured instead of always typing the same thing to you folks I’d make a longer blog that gives you all our favorites! So if someone asks me in the future about what to eat, where to go, what church we are at,... Read more
