Linear Thinking
To My Friends, I’ve talked to some of you about my personal struggles with what Larry Crabb calls the Law of Linearity. Over the past several days (maybe the last few weeks) I’ve come to some conclusions. Let me share them. I had a difficult time reconciling in my heart and mind how God seems…
From the Foxhole
Just so you know…..I wrote this letter before I knew who was going to get it. I rarely (if ever) write to people to dispense information. My day-to-day existence isn’t so interesting that I would presume that others would find it intriguing. Most men I know enjoy a good war movie. Have you ever seen…
The Big One
Hey Ashlee, From now on this note I am writing to you will forever be known as “that email.” I have a text message from you saved on my cell phone. It says, “Dad, I know you hear God. What is He telling you I should do? Not what you think, but God.” You sent…

The Juicy Stuff
Hey Ashlee, Today will be a busy day. I can’t start cutting grass until the dew burns off so I’ll spend a little time with you. I haven’t read or responded to Boaz’s email yet. Do you want me to tell him to lay off you in the chores department? Should I tell him you…
The Wedding that Wasn’t
Hey Ashlee, I know you have been very busy lately so write to me when you have time. You asked me for juicy emails so I am trying to honor your request. I saw on the sign-on screen that you have 93 emails today. I hope you enjoy mine to you. Previously, I wrote to…
