So I’ve been on a journey the last two years. It’s a journey I never intended to go on, but deep down inside, I knew I wanted to try.

n our current national climate, people are taking stands over everything. Lines are being marked, swords drawn...we are ready for a fight.

But what if we took a stand by taking a seat?

What if we choose to let peace be our weapon? 

We need more people in our lives who will tell us the truth. We need people who aren't afraid to be honest with us, even when honesty hurts.

If I'm being honest, I didn't want to write today. In fact, I really thought about letting the week pass by. 

The struggle of doing what is easy versus what is best is real.

Yes, this post is exactly what you think it is. It is a post about waking up early. 

This past weekend, the Oklahoma State Cowboy baseball team did something historic.

And this is what I learned as I watched...

I'm not sure how strong my faith could have been. I'm not sure how much longer I would be able to live selflessly.

I've been wondering what my blindspots are. What are the ways in which I rub people the wrong way? 

A reminder for today...

Have you ever tried walking against a crowd?

For the last two years, I have committed to writing a weekly blog about creativity. 

Today, that will change.

After last week's post, I wanted to share about a project I recently worked on that was very fun, indeed.

I don't know about you, but sometimes, work just gets me down. Sometimes, work just gets me in a bad mood. I can get in this weird headspace where creating is the last thing I want to do. Simply put, I don't like doing it. So I've been trying something lately. I've been trying to have more fun.

As creatives, we get caught up in the run and gun of life. One project leads to another. Balancing several projects on spinning plates. Hustling to line up the next project. Sometimes, it feels like it never stops.

La La Land is about pursuing your dreams...are you pursuing yours?

Lately, I've been trying to remind myself of something: Success does not happen overnight.

So, I have to confess something. I'm still a bit in the "New Year" dreaming phase. If that's a little vague, I guess I'm just still in the mode of dreaming about what can happen this year...

Welcome to the year 2017!

Unbelievable, huh?

Today I want to look back on the year that was by posting the top 3 blog posts of 2016. Each of these posts seemed to hit some chord with you all, so thank you for reading, posting and sharing.

This is my favorite week of the year. The week in which we celebrate the Advent of Jesus, our Savior.

Although I might read 10-12 new books a year, there are two books that I read every year...

Attention spans are getting shorter, but at what cost is the Church creating experiences that are ultra-fast paced? 

With the beginning of Advent, the Christian Calendar has moved into another year of celebrating and honoring the Story of God and His redemptive plan.
