Why Your “Strength Finders” Don’t Matter
Truthfully, they actually do matter…I exaggerated a bit to get your attention. Did it work? Good. I have, however, noticed a growing trend that bothers me enough to warrant a few paragraphs of my thoughts… In many circles, personality tests like Strength Finders, DISC, and others have gained traction over the years. Recently, we’ve been […]
Celebrating Marriage
A strong marriage is worth celebrating! Not a perfect marriage, not an instagram-worthy marriage, but a strong one in the midst of challenges and “I-didn’t-know-it-would-be-like-this” moments. Funny thing is, we start off marriage here in America with a huge planned party with friends and family (and sometimes people you don’t necessarily love but know they’ll […]
Visiting with Lucifer
“You’re kind of a geek, you’d like it! Check it out, it’s hilarious.” Based on the recommendation of a co-worker years ago, I remember watching the TV show “The Big Bang Theory” for the first time when it was in Season 2. I loved it. I found it was hilarious, totally nerdy, and had just […]

After going through Bible School and serving in ministry on several different levels for several years, I have spent some time now away from what many would call “full time ministry”. Four years ago I made a decision to focus my 9-5 efforts in other directions, while still serving God but not in a “positional” […]
I Changed My Mind About The Apple Watch
This is a follow up to an article I wrote a few weeks ago. Read it here. Yes, I’m changing my mind. What happened? Well, a couple things. One, I tried on an Apple watch, and I loved it. Felt amazing on my wrist – definitely felt like a more classy and elegant gadget…made my […]
I’m Offended
found on a Facebook post by Matt Walsh TRIGGER WARNING: during a discussion earlier today, someone posted this meme, I suppose in an effort to make light of the perpetual outrage and offense that permeates our culture. But I think, instead, this heartless and callous individual only demonstrated the need for the PC police. You […]
Go Pro Comparisons – Luke’s Thoughts
I had someone message me last week asking about GoPro models, and thought to myself “self, surely there’s other people that are curious about this!” So if you don’t have a GoPro and have thought about buying one for upcoming summer family trips, here’s some simplified thoughts on the current models, starting from the cheapest […]
