Dear Reader, I know we are knee deep in the Christmas season, so I will keep this very brief. We continue to have significant momentum as we build and prepare to launch early next year. Here are three quick, important updates: Launch date - Our launch date has been moved one week from 2/22/26 to 3/1/26 to resolve scheduling issues. Launch budget - We are 1/3 of the way towards our $150,000 launch budget goal. We need to order a bulk of our gear very soon to ensure it is on hand and ready for...

Dear Reader, On Monday, I had a conversation with Chris, a core member of our launch team (how we connected is a God story in and of itself). Chris asked, “Was it like this last time?” He wondered if things went like this when we planted a church many years prior in Connecticut. The reason he asked is that we were both marveling at how many things God has been doing and providing to bring One Life Church from vision into reality. After all, Bayside Church had just donated a trailer to us to...

Dear Reader, Believe it or not, I do have plans to write another book, which I look forward to, but that will have to wait until after I complete my current project, launching One Life Church. It has been nearly 2 months since I last sent an update, so I wanted to share some of the great things God has helped us to accomplish since then! We have secured a place to meet for church services! We have a worship leader and a Children's Director! We have been approved by the SBC as a SEND church...

Dear Reader, No, I am not writing another book (yet), but rather God has called me, and confirmed the call by many people, to launch a new church in Sarasota in 2026! This is crazy, because for two years I said I would never do it again. However, I am very excited about the unique vision and mission God has given us for One Life Church, which you can learn about in this 3-minute video: We have been working hard, and here are a few things we have done/are doing: • Finalized the name – One Life...

Dear Reader, Once again, the Trinity Encounter in Montana (last month) was a time of profound spiritual renewal and directional revelation. I received two confirmations -one I'm not ready to share yet, and another I'd value your input on. When I wrote "The Rest of the Man's Show," I knew it would connect with some readers, but I received a response that I didn't expect, yet was pleasantly surprised by. Many readers have told me or shared in their reviews that they enjoyed not only the content...

Dear Reader, If you've ever created something, then you know that more than anything, you want others to experience it too. Their liking it is a bonus. Their liking it so much that they tell someone else about it is a creator's dream come true. It is in that spirit that I am using my remaining allocated days from Amazon to give away "The Rest of the Man's Show" FREE (Kindle version) one more time, starting tomorrow. It will be available on Thursday and Friday (7/3 & 7/4) here. If there was...

Dear Reader, When you ask an author how their book is doing, they'll usually give you a vague answer along the lines of "It's doing fairly well" or "It's kind of struggling a bit right now." I am always curious about these matters as well, so I'll provide you with full transparency on my book sales, allowing you to assess progress for yourself. How many books have I sold? "The Rest of the Man's Show" was released on 4/8/25, and these are the stats so far: Books Sold = 315 Physical books given...

Dear Reader, I started this newsletter because, though I had clarity of purpose and vision in writing The Rest of the Man’s Show, I knew I couldn’t launch it alone. I needed a launch team. I want to thank you for coming alongside me and being that team for me this past season. Now that my book has been released, many would understandably assume the heavy lifting is finished when, in reality, it has only begun. Modern marketers suggest promoting a book is about a 1-year marathon, as it takes...
