About

---

I have spent much of my life running from God — first by defying Him, and later by studying Him.

It took me too long to surrender.

In surrender, I not only found God; I found myself. I would like to say I have perfected surrender, but I have not. I fail more than I succeed. Still, I am learning to recover more quickly.

Although I have not mastered surrender, surrender is perfecting me. Only in that posture does the Holy Spirit move — sometimes subtly, sometimes forcefully — shaping my soul and smoothing my edges.

I am a husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, friend, mentor, and disciple. I read deeply, write slowly, and notice God most clearly in ordinary moments — early mornings, quiet conversations, and the spaces where certainty gives way to trust.

If you are weary of performance, or simply hungry for something real, you are welcome here.

Agreement and disagreement are welcome. My prayer is your edification.
