I have a ten day streak for journaling. I am not a journal-er. I am trying to become a journal-er.

Just jotting down the stuff I did and some thoughts about gratitude.

No pressure.

The journal app on the iPhone has been where I’m doing so.

…and the house is empty, again.

We surely did enjoy every minute of having Ethan and Libby home. We are going to enjoy watching them thrive, too.

"You can't make time go faster or success come sooner. The only thing you can control is the next action." ~ James Clear

I appreciate this idea. There are so many things that we can’t control. What we can control is our next action.

I’m working on this new series of messages focusing on God’s Kingdom Come. It’s so formative for me. I hope that it will be helpful for the people I serve too.

Finished reading: The Alloy of Law by Brandon Sanderson 📚

This was one the most fun reads! Can’t wait for the next! Western meets fantasy and a continued development of the Mistborn mythology. The characters are so fun!

Currently reading: Dominion by Tom Holland 📚

As I work my way through this work, I am struck by the reality that the good and the bad of Christianity becoming yoked with Empire exists in no vacuum.

Finished reading: Calamity by Brandon Sanderson 📚

Another fun read from Sanderson! Such an enjoyable take on the superhero genre.

Today we celebrated our nephew Kyle marrying Lindsey. It was the culmination of an amazing weekend here in Jeffersonville, IN.

Knocked out my “Long Easy Run” for the week. I did a 5 minute warm up at 3.5 mph. Jogged 40 minutes uninterrupted at 1% incline and 11:45/mile pace. Then jogged 10 minutes at the same pace at 0% incline. Finished with 5 minutes at 3.5 mph.

“New goals don’t deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.” - James Clear

2026’s fist lift is in the books. Can I lift 2,000,000 pounds this year?

As we enter into a new year, what is one hope, one wish, and one dream that you have?

A hope is something bigger than yourself but something you can play a part in.

A wish is something that you have no control over but you would love to see happen.

A dream is personal and something that you can work toward accomplishing.

My hope? That Christians would model the Beatitudes and fruit of the Spirit in every aspect of life.

My wish? That I am hosting a whole heap of Red Wings playoff games parties.

My dream? That I create content that helps people to #LoveWell.

How about you?
