I wake up early and study Portuguese first thing in the morning.

I’ve been going at verb forms especially diligently lately.



I’m making astonishing progress. Adverbs rock!

It’s really helped my Spanish, too!

K and I went to Westside this morning.


Pastor Ben spoke on the importance of Fathers. Yeah, baby!

I’ll be leading the worship music next week. My Nigerian friend Fawobi will be preaching! I’ll be doing my version of music for the teams for our congregation. It’ll probably be the wildest thing they’ve ever heard at that church!

Went to Walmart to pick up some groceries. Eating healthy!

I’ve lost over 25 pounds. Incredible what diet and exercise will do for a body. I’ve been lifting light weights every morning, too. It’s been fun to see improvement. Jesse has been using my Total Gym as well. Good for both of us!

Came home to add my sermon notes to my Twitter feed.

Went for an 11.11 mile bike ride. Felt great to get out and ride. Haven’t been able to for the last few days due to the rain.

Recorded a new podcast, “Flags.” I have 13 episodes “in the can” waiting to be released. I’ve been very diligent in recording so I can continue Tu/Friday release dates during July when I don’t have time to record. I’ve really been careful about my voice and I haven’t been nearly as hoarse this year. Hope that trend continues!

Met up with Ashley at FBC Doraville. We set up for The Show. We did it all in 1:15 hours. I think that was a record. We were definitely going at it full speed!

Enjoyed a nice talk with Jesse this evening. Great to spend time with my kids on Father’s Day!

This surprised me.

Didn’t expect if from a Veteran.
