Well, football season ends and touring season begins!! People are always asking me how I’m doing after a season ending loss. They typically ask as though I’ve been holed up in a corner somewhere sucking my thumb, rocking back and forth, and repeating the score to the game we just lost over and over. Well, I suppose if everything rises and falls in your life with career success that might be the case. (ok, maybe alittle extreme) However, this world and it’s institutions cannot offeranything besides finances in themselves.
Sometimes I believe Godprevents people’s success so that they don’t ultimately fail. I don’t know why we lost to the Chargers a couple of weeks ago, but I assure you that God does and His reasons have very little to do with who He wants to win the Super Bowl and everything to do with bringing Glory to Himself and advancing His kingdom on the earth.
After a week on the Winter Jam tour I am having a blast! God is blessing His ministry through Chris and myself and it is a privilege to be His voice. We are wanting not to concentrate on the work so much and just focus on Jesus. Focusing on your ministry is vanity and ultimately leads to severe spiritual pride. So, starting this coming Thursday in Illinois we’ll hit the road again with His best interests in mind.
Sorry if I preach. Hope you all continue to visit!!

hey guys, I hope you enjoy your blog. The Blogging world is pretty cool, if you ever get board out there on the road go to brody’s place and start running down the list of people. There are some cool people out there.
Just found your blog, so a little behind. VERY glad to hear your grounded view of the end of the Colts season. I ws feeling like a traitor that I was not more upset. But I really felt this feeling that, as much as I love my Colts, there are just more important things. I hope many, many fans have been able to hear your wise words. I also hope you have been able to help your teammates find peace. Praying for you!
