I mentioned a couple of days ago that I've recommitted myself to take care of both, my physical and spiritual health. And yesterday I posted an update in regards to the physical side of things and today I thought I would share a little about the spiritual component of my life. Let's be clear.

The Gospel, Paul and Me – prequel
In 2018, beginning in April, I begin documenting my physical transformation through blog posts and then mostly just to Instagram. I called the journey - #chasing25.

As we got into the teaching time with the students, you could sense their excitement in having new people come to share with them. As I looked around the room, all of them had their bibles out and were on the front edge of their seats and all eyes looking forward. Initially I was nervous … Continue reading People are just people – 11/8/12
