- I am a man who is alive and happy to be that way. Yippee!
- I am a man who desires to love and to know God to the full extent that His grace will allow – desiring that my heart would grow more and more each day.
- I am a man who desires to focus more on Jesus (and consequently on others) and less on me.
- I am a man who desires to gaze into Jesus' heart as displayed at the cross – to be ruined over and over again by the depth of His love and the wonder of the implications of what He has done.
- I am a man who desires to know God as He is, as revealed by Scripture and Holy Spirit, not as revealed by a pastor, preacher, author, friend, or parent (their input and wisdom can be valuable, but I desire to drink straight from the source).
- I am a man who is learning what it means to abide in Jesus, in His grace reaching every day toward wholehearted devotion to Him.
- I am a man who desires to see God's love revealed to those who do not know it – to see people made whole, walking and living free of fear, full of that love.
- I am a man who desires to see the reality of God's kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.
- I am a man richly blessed who desires to be more grateful every day for every thing, recognizing that God is faithful in every situation, circumstance, and season.
Those are the things of my heart. Otherwise, I'm a guy who likes rock climbing, ethnic foods, raw worship music, YoYo Donuts and Coffee Bar, silience, writing, Pentel roller-gel .05mm pens, International House of Prayer, getting real, and some other things. I am an uncle, a brother, a son, and a friend. I joke and I laugh, often times at things others may not joke and laugh about. I work at Lionsgate Academy, a public charter school for students on the autism spectrum. My middle name is William.
