The Paradox that is My Life

…And maybe when the Lord looks down, He doesn’t labyrinth of paradoxes that I need to straighten out. Maybe He sees beautifully intertwined truths, realities, emotions, and events. Maybe I am meant to feel everything all at once, or maybe I am supposed to sort it out and let Him redeem me through it…

I am undone by His favor upon me. He knows He can do great things through me. He finds so many different ways to assure me of it. He knows I need reminders and that I need them often. Oh, how good is my God.

Being on Mission in Mexico City

I just wanted to share with you what Mexico City will be about for me and what I believe the Lord has planned for there. 


For 8 months, I will be joining a family in Mexico City who just opened a community center and started a church. I will be teaching classes and helping out anywhere I am needed, while building relationships with the people and sharing Christ with them. Most of the people there believe in God, but NOT in salvation by grace.


I am going through an organization called Pioneers (Pioneers.org),which I think you may be familiar with. They have made it easy for people to give to me financially.


I am leaving March 28th and need 90% of my funds by then so, an
y amount helps, I need lots of people to stand behind me on this. You can give online here (my account number is 111857).


I also need people standing behind me in prayer. I am not foolish enough to think that I can do this on my own. So, please remember me!


If you want to be on my newsletter let me know. I will probs be sending out video updates so you won’t have to do much reading. (:


Here are the links to two newsletters that I have sent out. I believe the second one is the video.

Settling: A Matter of the Heart

Im convinced that the best way to guard your heart is to not settle. I don’t say this in only regard to romantic love. No, I mean don’t settle in anything or for anything. Believe me, I am preaching this to myself.

Don’t settle for a life that wasn’t meant to be yours. Don’t let fear rule you. Don’t let it start to whisper the dangers of becoming. The process and the end result are unknown, uncharted, and undiscovered, but only because you’ve sat on the sidelines for most of your life. The fear is there, I get it, and its big, I know, but its an illegitimate fear in comparison to He who is on your side.

I have this prayer that I always pray for myself and for those I love. It goes a little like this,

Jesus says, “Will you come with me outside the camp, where the darkness is, where the dirty dwell, where the despised go? It will be messy, but it will be beautiful. Will you come?”.

The wildness of giving us freedom is even more staggering when we remember that God has already paid dearly for giving freedom to the angels. But because of his grand heart he goes ahead and takes the risk, an enormous, colossal risk. The reason he didn’t make puppets is because he wanted lovers. Remember, He’s inviting us up into a romance. Freedom is part of the explanation for the problem of evil. God is the author of some storms directly; but He is the author of the possibility of all storms in giving us freedom. And we opened Pandora’s box

A Lesson in Parting: A Sweet Sorrow

….I am in the season of goodbye. I graduated college about a month ago. I parted with the student life and many people who remain there. In less than two months, I will be saying goodbye to my family, my friends and to the USA with all that it holds (job security, prosperity, comfort etc). 


I’ve asked the Lord to make me teachable, and God has a way of gracefully exploiting our weaknesses to the point with His glory springs forth. This season is not for to become comfortable or even good at goodbyes; I feel too deeply to have that ever be possible, and that is okay…
