What’s Stopping You from Being You?

As I turn 40 this week I’m writing a few reflective posts. It’s always good to take step back and ask, “What have I been learning and experiencing these last few years… or better yet, decades?”

It was ten years ago and Betony was pregnant with our first child. We were having dinner with some friends who are a bit older than us; people whose wisdom in the music profession I trust.

After dinner…

On Saturday, August 18th, I had the opportunity to give the message at St. Andrew Evensong, the church where I’m a music director in Highlands Ranch, CO.

I spoke on how with every revolution of the earth around the sun, the seasons themselves preach over us… fall, winter, spring, and summer tell of death, hope, resurrection, and new life. We encounter this every year and the truth of it permeates…

Far Young (Band)

Far Young is a new boy band formed by (also mamaged) Tim Coons, an award-winning producer and the original producer of the biggest boy bands in history—*Nsync and Backstreet Boys—in the early 2014. At first the band started out doing cover songs on their live performances such as All of Me, originally by John Legend, and what can we say? They performed and covered the song really good! Maybe even better than the original one?

Far Young is consists of three members: Christian (Middle; 1st photo. Middle; 2nd photo); Eben (Right; 1st photo. Left; 2nd Photo) and; Jackson (Left; 1st photo. Right; 2nd photo)

The said band has already released their very first single entitled “#Everything.” Make sure to visit their official website at faryoung.com and buy the single at bit.ly/FYeverything!

Father’s Day Writing

There’s a strange story that I like to tell on Father’s Day.

When I was in 7th grade, I was duck hunting early in the morning with my dad and I shot my first duck. Our dog retrieved the bird and brought it back to the blind. I had wounded the bird but it was still alive, gasping for breath. I was uncertain what to do but certain I didn’t want to touch that duck. My dad stood up and quickly…

I came to His shelter, found love in His wings I said, “There’s nothing I have to bring. My wallet is empty, I’m down to my last What is required of me?”
