“My children are always singing…” Family and friends often describe me as deeply curious—endlessly fascinated by the human heart, our behaviors, and, most of all, our incredible capacity to love. I’m known for asking big questions: What are your current challenges? If you could change anything in your life right now, what would it be?…

During the holiday season, we gather not just to share old movies, traditional foods, and laughter, but to celebrate the deeper joys that unite us. These moments remind us of the enduring power of love, the strength found in togetherness, and the profound gratitude that lights our way forward. Each memory we create becomes a…

After a year shaped by the word Endeavor, we now stand at Summit—the place we’ve been moving toward through twelve months of ascent. The peak is supposed to feel like relief, a long exhale after the slow burn of elevation. But standing here at the end of the year, toes pressed to the ridge line, we know…

There’s a point in every climb when the ground shifts beneath you and gravity demands everything you have left. Climbers call it the crux—the hardest move on the mountain. It’s the place that asks not only for strength but for heart, endurance, and faith that the next hold is worth reaching for. At Hands &…

There’s a moment in every climb when the air thins, when vision narrows, and when belief is all that remains between you and the summit. Not the kind of belief that floats lightly on optimism, but the kind that clings—with white-knuckled resolve—to the rope of faith. At Hands & Feet Project, belief is not abstract. It’s…

In Haiti, spiritual care doesn’t happen in a classroom. It happens in the heat of a soccer field, in the laughter echoing through the courtyard, in the tears that come when a child receives their very first award for honesty. It happens when we pause long enough to see each other—to really see—the way Christ…

Every climber knows the word press. To press is to lean your whole weight into resistance, to take the next step when the air thins, when the rock pushes back, when gravity insists you stay low. Scripture is not shy about this kind of pressing. It shows us that growth, refinement, even salvation itself, often…

There comes a moment in every journey when resolve stops being a word and becomes a lifeline. Not the loud kind. Not bravado. Not noise.But the quiet kind—like Abraham’s footsteps up Mount Moriah. Steady. Heavy. Unshakable. We don’t know much about what he said on that climb, only that he brought wood, fire, and his…

In Haiti, school is more than pencils and paper. It’s a lifeline. A meal. A refuge. A future. But it’s a future that far too many children never reach. According to IIEP, 10% of Haitian students drop out before completing sixth grade. By ninth grade, that number jumps to 40%. And if that doesn’t gut…

At the halfway mark of a hard climb, your legs begin to shake. The adrenaline that carried you at the beginning is gone. The peak is nowhere in sight, and the only way forward is through. That’s where we are right now—midway through this year’s journey of Endeavor. And this month, our word is Replenish.…
