My Writings. My Thoughts.
>Our Third Child
// May 25th, 2010 // 5 Comments » // life // life
I want to start out by saying thank you to Pastor Jeff Gokee. Thank you. Thank you for your passion. The video they showed at CornerStone was moving, without a doubt. But I connected with Jeff’s heart when I saw the look in his eyes when the Indian child he adopted came on the screen. I knew instantly who she was without anyone even saying. That’s when I felt the tug in MY heart. Continue Reading
The Three G’s
// March 30th, 2010 // No Comments » // life // life
My favorite songwriter, Jon Foreman says there are three G’s that he’ll never fully understand. God, Grace, and Girls. God and Grace make sense, but girls? How hard is it for a guy to understand a girl? They’re created to be our counterparts, the yin to our yang, similar yet so different. I am about to turn 26, and I feel like I’ve gotten a pretty good handle on girls over my lifetime. They’re tricky, but not too hard to understand. That is until my wife and I had our daughter. Continue Reading
Cornerstone
// March 2nd, 2010 // No Comments » // life // life
I’ve been trying to think of a good subject to write about for a while. Should I talk about what’s inspiring me and where it comes from? Should I talk about the blessings and hardships of life? Why not combine them into one central thought: Cornerstone. Continue Reading
Worship
// February 2nd, 2010 // 8 Comments » // life // life
I haven’t blogged for a while, so I figured I’d throw something up here quickly about this past weekend! On Sunday I had the opportunity to serve with the Worship Team at Cornerstone, my family’s church home. I’m a lover of music. I know that’s a pretty bland statement, that all of us have probably said in their lives, but there’s something special about songs written specifically for times of worship. Continue Reading
Evan Almighty….and Jimmy?

“Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?” Continue Reading
My Son the Comedian
// December 13th, 2009 // No Comments » // life // life
My wife Amanda works the 5pm service in the nursery at our Church Home, Cornerstone every weekend. My daughter, Madison goes with her, as she is in the room Amanda works. Typically during this time, My son Ethan and I will just hang around the house, watch a movie, or just spend time. Tonight, I decided that we should do something special, Continue Reading
December: Thanksgiving, a Month Late?
// December 10th, 2009 // No Comments » // life // life
So I’ve been thinking recently about my life, and all that I am thankful for. It’s funny how this comes to mind a month after the thanksgiving Holiday. I’ve been looking at information from the March of Dimes recently, and it’s got me thinking of how much differently things could have been for me right now, without God’s unfailing love. Continue Reading

Welcome!
// October 20th, 2009 // No Comments » // work // work
Welcome to my blog. I hope to provide some words of wisdom, as well as probably do a great deal of rambling. I hope to add sort of a play by play of my methods and inspiration when I create something new, and if I’m working on a project, I’ll try to update on the process. I hope this ends up being a worthwhile read for anyone interested, and that I’ll be able to show some of the methods to my madness.
Thanks for stopping by,
Brent
