Find Your Yes
“Yes” seems to be the popular thing these days. When did it become so wildly attractive to be busy? Isn’t it funny that when asked, “busy” seems like a socially acceptable response, and “I have some time on my hands,” would be labeled “sad”? It’s as if “busy” means...
How Hard Did Aging Hit Me?
While we compare all of these profile pictures, much of what we see are babyfaces, awkward phases, clothes, and hairstyles. When I look back at my profile picture from ten years ago, I see my eyes, bright with anticipation, but the angst in my stomach says, “That...

This popcorn is literally the easiest thing I make for any get together and is always gone by the end of the party. We call it “Husker Popcorn” because I made it the first time for a Husker football game and my people didn’t know how else to ask for it again.

What Calls Your Soul?
The goals we grip tightly in our hands: the next house, car, perfect holidays, vacations, promotions, opportunities for our kids. Always the next thing, more and more. Just as we reach one mark, the next more creeps in: the house could be more updated, the car is...
You Don’t Need To Be Better To Begin
God nudges us. If we are listening carefully, God loves to direct us. He loves to whip up dreams and desires in our hearts and then push us to fulfill them. He loves for us to succeed as he orchestrates big plans, big conversations, and big dreams. He cheers us on...
