Maybe I am a Liar

Well, one blog in and I am already a liar.  I have decided that the first blog I wrote and my motivation for writing a blog should be amended.  So.  Here is the real deal.  This blog is more for me to keep my priorities in the forefront.  My God, my wife, my family, my job and being outdoors.  Those are my top 5.  You can agree or disagree, but that is where my priorities fall.  In that order.

My God is most important.  Why?  I am sure as I spend some time writing, you will come to see what makes it important.  I don't want to give it all away right now.  For the time being, please know that it is important and we will get there.

My wife.  If I ever get to a point where my wife is less important than anything but Jesus, I am probably going to be in trouble soon.  I do not worship my wife, i respect, trust and love my wife.  I will probably post some super silly stories about her and probably even some that make you think "there is no way she ok'd this!"  Trust me, she did.  It's the internet, she would eventually see it.

My family.  We have 5 kids.  They range in age between 18 months and 8 years old.  Now remember that as I say that, there are 5 of them, so chances are that in about 2 months one of them will change ages.  By the time you read this, they may be waaaaay older.  Who knows!

My Job.  I am a youth minister and church communications guy.  I hang out with Students from pre-k to 12th grade and make semi cool graphics and things for publication.  I also build and maintain the website for the church and such.  It is a pretty sweet gig.  From the outside in, it looks like I get to horse around a lot.  Well...

Being outdoors is one thing that I really love and I connect with God in a very meaningful way.  I am a hunter, (terrible) fisherman, hiker, wanderer, I am really good at sitting, and falling asleep under trees is one of my specialties.  

I look forward to sharing silly stories, hunting stories, lying about fishing and keeping an eye out for God moments.  I am not sure at what point each week I am going to update, but I am planning on trying to get there once a week.

Have a great week and I am sure that I will share more soon.
