sticking with it // even in the rain
I made a commitment beginning last Saturday that I would run/bike 2 miles a day everyday for the rest of the year since we canceled our gym membership. The bike part, no big deal for those days. But I knew I had to add running in there as biking can’t be my only form of [...]
Nehemiah 5 // justice
This could be an incredibly long post, so I’ll attempt to make it short. This morning I was given the privilege to speak at Cornerstone. (On a side note: In the past I’ve occasionally joked that I get the “not many people will be here today, so if Brian says something crazy it shouldn’t be [...]

sometimes it takes me more than a sheet of paper to figure out how I’m going to communicate the message for Sunday morning…
Uganda // Invitation
In November of 09, a whirlwind of a month, Kristen and I were able to join Josh Agerton and Christopher Slagley on a trip to Buloba, Uganda. We have been partnering with a church in Buloba for the last few years and have seen God move in big ways. One of our goals while we [...]
