In a story called The Lonely Ember, Dr. John MacArthur writes: a man who once showed up every week quietly stopped coming to church. Weeks passed before his pastor went to see him. It was a cold evening. The man sat alone in front of a strong, steady fire. He welcomed the pastor in and [...]
Most days in Southern Colorado feel wide open and bright. The kind of days where you roll the top down, breathe deep, and enjoy every mile. The road stretches out in front of you, clear and easy to follow. But then there are the other days. Snow moves in fast. The sky turns gray. The [...]

My mama used to say, “You’ve got a bad case of the ‘I wants.’”She wasn’t wrong. And if I’m honest, I still have them. Back when Jordache, Gloria Vanderbilt, and Calvin Klein jeans were everything, my Levi’s never felt like enough. I always seemed to want what I didn’t have. The problem was my taste [...]
