Watch the Interview
The future of your family doesn’t happen by chance — it’s built, one intentional moment at a time. In this conversation, I sit down with Kaleb Saucer to talk about what it really means to parent with purpose in today’s fast-paced, distracted culture. This isn’t about perfect parenting — it’s about purposeful parenting, and the […]
Parenting with Purpose: Five Foundations for Shaping the Next Generation
I know none of us want to hear this, but here it is: one day, our children will make decisions without us in the room. They will face pressure we cannot remove, questions we cannot answer for them, and opportunities that require them to know who they are and what they believe. What we build […]

The idea of composing a new blog post crossed my mind, but upon further consideration, I realized I had previously written on this topic. Rather than starting from scratch, I opted to revisit a post I crafted a couple of years ago and give it a refreshed perspective.
The March of Moments
30 years! It may not seem possible, but my wife and I joyfully marked three decades of marriage in August. In thirty years, we have been blessed with three children, two of whom have entered the bonds of matrimony themselves. Oh, and did I mention that our daughter Ashton and her husband Hunter are eagerly […]

Someone once said, “whoever created the snooze button should get the Nobel Peace Prize!” The snooze button symbolizes the mentality of so many of us. We would rather stay in bed than getup and face the day. We would rather eat whatever we want than watch our wait. We would rather spend our money foolishly […]
