A little meditation on Peter, James, & Johns...
“When they had brought their boats to land they forsook all and followed him.”
This quote is from Luke 5:1-11. Its the story of when Jesus speaks to Simon (AKA Peter), commanding him to “launch out into the deep and let down the nets for a catch”. Do you know that story?
Well, it goes a little something like this.
Jesus, randomly got into this guy Simons boat as he...
LIFE
I have not posted a blog for a year and a half to be exact. I don’t know who would read this. But, God has been doing a lot in my life. I went from being Mr. single man to being happily married to a beautiful princess from the cold dark country in the arctic called Finland. I went from being a seven year intern at Calvary Chapel Santa Barbara to directing my own non profit Christian...

Christmas in Nurmes
Man. I can’t believe how quick time flies. It is already Tuesday. I have been in Finland for Four days. The first three days I have been in Helsinki kind of waiting around for my bags. My bags with my clothes came but my suitcase with all the Christmas presents are still MIA.
I love Helsinki. The best description of this City is everything good about San Francisco. It has a very...
Dude. Wheres my luggage?
Hello from Finland.
I got here at 1am. Right now it is 7am in Finland. Finland is -20’C right now. Poor Eeva took the public transportation from her apartment to the airport to greet me and sat around for two or three hours cause my flight arrival was so delayed. It took me an hour or so to get through to her, cause the bags took like 45minutes to start coming out of the baggage claim,...

But I cant rush and forget things or else I will be at the airport without my passport. OK. Its going to be...

Really, its just a time that we set aside where the student led worship teams of our youth group prepare their hearts and minds spiritually and technically for worship of Jesus Christ. Well, that is more the vision. The...
