I started playing the guitar when I was 12. My dad taught me to play. He is and was a big classic rock fan. As well as a Paul McCartney fan. So I got some great guitar lessons just by listening to music. I was always a big Christian music fan. A big part of learning for me was just sticking in a tape or CD and trying to play along. DC Talk was great for that. I started playing and leading worship for my youth praise band growing up. I had a band with in Missouri with the guys from my youth group. H.O.G. Rocks!! After high school I was busy at the church my parents pastored and also worked full time at Lowe's. Yes, I sold lots of lumber. I still remember a few item numbers. Not long after that I joined up with the rest of the guys in MercyMe and have not looked back since. I still enjoy making music and writing songs. I look forward to what the future brings.

SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Well I feel a bit like I should go hide my head in the sand somewhere from the shame of my lack of posts. I have many a time had the intention of posting a thought of the day, but alas, I let life get in the way of my online adventures. So if by some chance you have been awaiting a new post from me since, oh goodness, October!! Then I apologize.
Well so here is what has been happening. The fall tour ended with a bang. It went well enough that Audio A has decide they will postpone their departure from the music scene long enough to go at it again with us this spring. And of course we are thrilled about that.
After the tour it was full speed into the holiday season for us. We made a last minute decision to do a couple Christmas shows here in our home town to benefit the Biabetic research Foundation. Both shows went great and we had fun bringing out the Christmas songs again as only we know how to do them.
My family and I also moved into a new house during all of this. It has been about a three year process getting into this house so it is nice to finally be in a living. I have also been on a top secret mission during our time off. You will find out about that if you are curious enough;)
So it's off to tour for us, once again come catch us on the road, watch out for the scooter gang of course! I will do my best to keep you up to date on the tour and let you know what is going on in MercyMe's world. Love ya lots!!
