I am excited to begin taking the communities I serve through the letter to the Colossians this Sunday.

If you live in the Flint area you can join me at 10:45 am for a service of worship at Peace Presbyterian Church.

If you live in the Ypsilanti area join us at 5:30 for dinner followed by singing, Scripture, communion, and prayer at 6:30 in our home.

Today was spent in East Lansing getting Libby set up for Year 4 at Michigan State! Ths Spring she will be graduating with her degree in Public Relations.

We are so proud of her and all she has already accomplished at MSU!

This past weekend was spent loading a U-Haul and traveling to Iowa City, Iowa. Ethan is off on his next grand adventure, University of Iowa Law.

His apartment is nice. The town is fantastic. The campus is beautiful.

Amy and I are so proud of him!

Lake day.

Some days are just built different! Yesterday, we spent the day in Detroit hanging out, exploring, laughing, eating, and being present to one another. Life is good.

Them gritty Tigers be grittin’! #RepDetroit

As I have read and researched more about this budget bill that was passed today, many verses ran through my mind, this one seems most apropos.

Do you think that there will ever come a time again where we can have public dialogue about ideas without dehumanizing those with whom we differ?

Diving into this text seems appropriate at this point in calendar…

Currently reading: America’s God by Mark A. Noll 📚

Back to the gym for the first time since Monday. Had a number of relational opportunities that took precedence.

It’s good to be back working hard like this.

Absolutely smoked. #Discipline2025

Bad round of golf, real strong lift. Frustration finding a good and healthy release. 🤣🤣

Good morning! Here is to a new week! I encourage you to begin the week in intentional community. We need one another in a shared life more than we realize. #MorningMug

Amy and I introduced Libby to Frita Batidos in downtown Ann Arbor tonight. Such a fun little place.

I tried their seasonal, Conch Po Boy, it didn’t disappoint!

The #OldGal posted a 4 today. Victory!

Fasting today for a colonoscopy means no lift today or tomorrow. So, a walk it is. Some stupid medical procedure won’t break the streak.

Have a great day today! #MorningMug
