We have a great team photographer. Love how she captured Joshua’s emotion in this pic. Also love the maroon on white look. Definitely my favorite look for this team.

This helpful chart is from Neil Shenvi’s excellent book Why Believe?: A Reasoned Approach to Christianity. This one will definitely be making my end-of-the-year list.

Mustangs Home Opener

Joshua pitching in the 2023 Varsity home opener. I especially love what he wrote on his forearm as a reminder of what it’s all about.

My Valentine

Posted on February 14, 2023 by Jason

A special Valentine I received from Darby, one of our precious little young ladies at church. I’ve preserved it under the glass on my desk so I can see it every day! Thank you, Darby!

First Gig

Posted on February 13, 2023 by Jason

Jackson had his first paying gig as a musician tonight, performing for the Valentine’s Banquet at the Lakewood Church of Christ. He played a mix of originals and classic love songs for the occasion. And the people were so kind, giving him a standing ovation at the end of his set. A very proud moment for me, especially because I know how hard Jackson works on his music. He’s always been creative, but he’s really found his niche these last few years as a composer, an instrumentalist, and now as a vocalist. I can’t wait to see how he continues to grow as an artist.

Honduras Mission Trip

Posted on February 1, 2023 by Jason

Last month, our baseball team took a quick trip to Santa Rosa, Honduras to work with our dear friends Jon and Stacy Stacy. We hosted a free baseball clinic to teach skills to local children in the community. It was a great trip. Here are some of the pictures and video.

Posted on January 22, 2023 by Jason

Here are some photos from our trip to Israel, focusing on our time in Qumran, En Gedi, the Dead Sea, and Masada.

Just before we entered Jerusalem, we stopped by the Valley of Elah. Joshua and I couldn’t resist the opportunity to throw a few rocks in honor of David slaying Goliath.
