- Going All the Way: A review of Craig Groeschel’s Latest
I had the pleasure of reading Craig’s latest book. This one is about intimate relationships and it may be the best book on dating and marriage I’ve ever read. Check that, since it was actually good it was the second book I ever finished on dating and marriage.
Here’s an excerpt of my review for YMX.

- Welcome Jimmy and Ashley
For the last few weeks I’ve had a hard time biting my tongue as I couldn’t wait for Jimmy and Ashley to get started at Romeo. Well, today was the day.
There are a lot of things I like about Jimmy and Ashley. It goes without saying that Jimmy is a very talented worship leader. I [...]
- Ode to Charlie Weis
I’ve been very silent about Notre Dame football this season. And for good reason. I knew it wasn’t going to be a good year over the summer when Coach Wei, at a celebrity golf outing, told the press that he thought it was going to be a tough year for the Irish. He said, “we’re [...]
- Saturday Tunes
The kids are absolutely going nuts with staying in the house. They woke up bouncing off the walls and I think we’ll need to take them somewhere to run pretty soon. Also, Kristen and I will hopefully be finishing up the wallpaper stripping later this morning so we can get a coat of primer on [...]

- The Turkey Drop
It’s really not thanksgiving without a little reference to WKRP in Cincinnati, is it? Here’s the classic skit. For those who are too young to remember this show, it was great!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. From our family to yours. Enjoy the pumpkin pie, football games, and of course time with the family.
- Family Force 5 for the Deaf
I love Family Force 5. They bring a million pounds of energy to any event. Well, check out these videos captured in Atlanta. The lady doing interpretation for the deaf really got into it. Apparently, she is a fan of the band.
