So glad I had the privilege to record this song with my friends, @ThePianoGuys. Would love to have been there to hear Jon’s son sing this. Merry Christmas!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the tragic death of Charlie Kirk. How could I not. I can’t unwatch the video of a brother losing his life in such a tragic way. This one hit me deeper than I could’ve imagined, in ways I can’t really even explain. I’ve watched him from a distance for years. Often times I found myself wishing he’d said something differently, because when you say so many things so often, things are bound to come out wrong sometimes. The Bible tells us where words are many, sin is not absent. I look back over my life, especially in my earlier years, and wish I could take back so many of things I’ve said on a whim or in the heat of a moment. But as I rewatch video after video of Charlie, talking to students and people around the world, the resounding message he leaves with the listener is that he is a sinner in need of grace, and that the only way to find peace with God is through a relationship with Jesus. Countless times from his own mouth he said his main mission was to share the Gospel. He said that was his calling and mission in life, and secondly to love his wife and kids well. It grieves me to see such callous celebration over the loss of Charlie in such a graphic way, but it bothers me more that those people can’t even hold their tongue for the sake of those closest to him who are grieving. His wife, and those precious babies. Simply put, it’s not what Jesus would do. Last thing I’ll say. So many people laugh at the thought that Charlie died a martyr, but that’s exactly what happened. His faith in Christ drove him to do what he did, regardless of whether or not others come down exactly where he did on every issue. He got up with a purpose to share his faith with others, and draw them into it. That’s exactly why he was shot, and he died a martyr. I’m deeply sad, and I pray for Gods mercy on us as a nation. What evil never understands, is that when it responds this way, it only spreads the Good News further. John 12:24 “Truly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains by itself. But if it dies, it produces much fruit.”

Wrote this to bring hope and light into the tragic events at Annunciation Catholic School.

Watching the Karen Read trial prompted me to ask, is Occiput Boner a medical term? Didn’t think so. #turtleboy #freekarenread #fkr

It’ll be 10 years next month with my best friend.

Here’s a little song I wrote for my mom, wife, and all the beautiful mother’s out there. Happy Mothers Day!
