I haven’t done one of these in a while, so I thought it be good to let you all know a little bit more about me. If you got a minute, let us know who you are too (and leave a link to your blog in the comments).

I’ve spent over 21 years mentoring individuals in life skills, career transitions, relationships, and life recovery. My resume includes pastoral care, behavioral health, and higher education. From an early age, I realized that God created me to bring hope, healing and encouragement to others. I am currently living out my purpose by creating a space where people can rediscover and become all that they were created to be. I currently live in the beautiful state of Arizona with my wife, two dogs, and an antique piano whom I call, “Betty.”

  2. That is so funny John. One of the best places we ever lived when we were in the military was a place called Rocky Point. It was beautiful. Right on the ocean and quiet. Lots of whales and seals and otters. We always say we wish we could go back and live…God Bless and congrats with finishing your MSc!
