An Open Letter to the Anthem Community

I’ve been thinking about the past few weeks of Anthem and its beginnings. Its so great to see how God is moving in the ministry and in our hearts as leaders. By reflecting i don’t mean that i have been critiquing Anthem. Critiquing is great and its always good to get better at what you’re doing but I don’t want to begin focusing on what we’re doing right or...

Anthem is fun.

Oh man. I want to thank the Holy Spirit and everyone for making the first service of Anthem amazing. I really cant wait to see what God does with us. Theres something so great and rewarding about doing ministry with friends and people you care about. It’s fun. This ministry is a major time and energy sacrifice for a lot of people and I couldn’t be more thankful for the people that God...

What is this Anthem?

People keep asking that question. As Anthem starts tomorrow I figured its a good time to try and tackle it. I’m known for being playfully vague in a lot of circumstances (keeps a mystery and intrigue about me) but I really haven’t had a good solid answer for this question… in fact because of this I haven’t really talked a lot about Anthem at all. not even to my friends. ...

Anthem of The Church

We have one week before Anthem starts on January 22nd. On top of working, this week will be full with meeting and praying with some of the leaders and people who have offered to make sure the ministry is up and running. Im so thankful for the friends I have an wouldnt want to do ministry with anyone else. That sounds generic reading back over it but I really do feel that way. I’m excited to...

Blogging and Update and Anthem

I’ve decided to start blogging again and using this as a place to transparently document everything thats going on in life currently and not just random pictures or whatever. Anthem is beginning in a couple weeks and I feel like God has been preparing me in a lot of ways to be back in ministry. There are definitely good changes happening but even with the good ones theres a bit of sadness...

psalmfortytwo: So every year Johnny and I try to watch as many Christmas movies as we can; always adding on new ones and being sure to re-watch all of our favorites. This year we made it through 29, which isn’t our all-time best but isn’t too bad, either! Here’s the list in pictures [and in order of viewing]: …

The liberation of Nazi death camp, Bergen-Belsen

I can give no adequate description of the Horror Camp in which my men and myself were to spend the next month of our lives. It was just a barren wilderness, as bare as a chicken run. Corpses lay everywher, some in huge piles, sometimes they lay singly or in pairs where they had fallen. It took a little time to get used to seeing men women and children collapse as you walked by them and to...
