Too Much to Think About

There are so many things our eyes see, our ears here, and our mind thinks about that we come across every day, all day. There's too much actually.

Paul tells us in Romans 12:2 to "not conform to the patterns of this world." The pattern of this world is distraction to the mission of what we are called to do and who we are called to be.

Paul goes on to say in Romans 12:2 that we are to "be transformed by the renewing of our mind so that we will know God's will". How are we to be transformed and have our mind renewed and know God's will? Through God's Word. That's how he speaks to us.

If we read it every single day (yes every day) and meditate on it so that his words are in our mind, then we are transformed and renewed. Then we know his will. This is how we are able to be fully equipped to carry on the mission for which we are called.

Disciple-maker. Chocolate lover. Husband to Lisa, and dad to Brayden, who serves in the U.S. Coast Guard. I currently pastor Sherwood Community Friends Church in Sherwood, Oregon.

I've spent over two decades in ministry and leadership, hold a Master's in Pastoral Counseling, and have had the privilege of bringing God’s Good News to Nicaragua, Greece, Haiti, Brazil, the Czech Republic, and beyond. I've led businesses and churches through growth during hard seasons, walked alongside people in their best and worst moments, and never once stopped being convinced that following Jesus is worth everything it costs.

When I'm not doing ministry things, you'll find me on a hiking trail, rucking around my neighborhood, or standing in front of my Traeger grilling up some part of an animal and making no apologies for it.
