I am deeply honored and humbled this week. I've had the opportunity to address an international audience in the most exotic of places. This opportunity, I've surmised, was not born from luck, but from a lifetime commitment to service, and the understanding that investment in others bears fruit...

Imagine you are at an outdoor concert and as you pick up to leave, you start to feel a bit off. You notice a numb sensation on your right side. You decide to sit down against a tree, but this doesn’t help. Your anxiety goes through the roof as you come to realize that you might be having a...

“Once in awhile you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right,” is a broadly applicable line written by a recently departed favorite poet/lyricist of mine. More on him in a later post. But this week, while trolling Youtube for inspirational guitar...
