As summer ends, it is all just beginning.










Currently I am on tour with Josh and the band, today we are in NJ.
The last few months have flown by (speaking of flying, when I fly home tomorrow it will be my 12 flight this month).
I have taken a position at my church coordinating local outreaches and world wide missions.
If I could have written up my so called "dream job" it would have looked a lot if not exactly like this.
My first trip was to Peru with the youth last week, where we dug wells, build a house and treated over 1400
 children for parasites and lice. 
It was really incredible to do something so hands on and practical.

Back to tour- Josh is over half way through a 6 week summer tour and because of all that has gone on at home with my new job and life in general it has been hard to be without him.
But every time I get down and wonder-
why in the world are we doing this? 
I am reminded that the road less traveled. 
Although it is a tougher trail with signs or guide maps, it is the path worth taking. 
It is the adventure, it is the reckless abandon to everyday society. 
It is just as Jesus did. Give up everything that you may have life.
