Love/Hate Relationships

We all have those things in life that drive us crazy, those things that we 'hate'.

I'm no different. I have an intense dislike for...

• Going to the dentist
• Say Yes To The Dress
• People talking on the phone in a public bathroom
• The New York Yankees
• Being woken up from sleep
• Slow internet
• Being hit in the face with just about anything... Bugs, Nerf darts, fists
• People who don't turn off their turn signal
• Cold weather

I don't think anyone who knows me is surprised by that.

I hope I'm not known for that though. I hope I'm known more for what I love than what I hate.

I love...

• Crystal
• Kyler
• My family
• God
• Paddleboarding
• The Dallas Stars
• Documentaries
• Wearing boardshorts
• Mat Kearney
• Pickup trucks
• Summer
• Smoked salmon

Everyone is against something, but a positive person spends more time talking about what they are for, rather than what they are against. 

As Jesus followers, let's aim for that. Let's try to be known for what we love as opposed to what we are against. Let's be known for what we love.

The church has been known for what it's against, and it is against some things. It should be. But let's try to change that. Let's talk about what we love. What we are for.

Christians should be known for their love.

"Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.” - John 13:35

Would you say you are known more for what you are for or what you are against?
What are some things that you love?

Mat Kearney

I had the chance to head down to Toronto last night to see Mat Kearney play the Opera House, (maybe my favourite venue), and it was as good as expected.

His new album is a return to some of the spoken word stylings that endeared him to me, so I was anxious to see him perform some of the new material live. It was a great night, with some great friends.

New Music On The Horizon

I'm excited for the next couple of months in music.

August 3rd sees the new Mat Kearney album released.

September 27th we get the new Switchfoot.

AND October 4th Jack's Mannequin releases their latest offering.

It's going to be a solid couple of months.

Hey Mama

I'm going to see Mat Kearney tonight!
