The public journey begins

Today I begin publishing thoughts and insights along my life's journey. My world consists of four distinct, yet interwoven parts that require balancing and integration as I walk out my life purpose of living a life having "transformational impact." My world includes 1) my faith as a follower of Christ and an emerging paradigm as to what that means, 2) my relational role as husband, father, family member, and friend, 3) my part-time corporate world of investments and risk management, and 4) my part-time ministry role as Executive Pastor, teacher, and board member.

My ramblings are ultimately intended to discipline myself to reflect on a regular (perhaps daily) basis and provide documentation for my journey allowing me to look back to see how life has unfolded and paradigms have shifted. I also hope the words offer an encouragement, challenge, and insight to those of you taking the time to read it. I welcome any comments and look forward to your reactions to my journey. I desire knowledge and learning as I grow in my understanding of myself, my God, and others who I encounter along my journey.
