Big Jeremy Camp fan. Enjoy a wide range of music, from Lynard Skynard to Norah Jones, if you can believe that. Just depends what rotates around on the iPod.

"The Robe," by Lloyd C. Douglass, is my favorite book of all time. "Magnificent Obsession" is a close second. "Peace Like a River," "Marley and Me," "The Kite Runner" too. Enjoy anything by Don Miller, Philip Yancey

Hero's Tribute (2009)
Michael Gavin was a local hero, admired for his skill as a quarterback, his service in the military, and his work in the community. Stricken with cancer and on his death bed, Michael takes a leap of faith and entrusts his legacy to Wes Watkins, a reporter he'd never met, by asking him to deliver his eulogy.

Wes accepts this unconventional offer, hoping to at least get a good story out of the situation. A good story will draw the attention of big-city newspapers and get him out of his small-town sports beat. But as Wes digs deeper into Michael's background, everything changes. Secrets come to light, and soon Wes sees the hometown hero as he really is. As Wes tries to find the words to describe Michael, he is also forced to examine his own life and decide what will define him

Groomed (2005)
Groomed is a story not just about wedding planning, but the relationship of an engaged couple from proposal to vows, all told from a groom's perspective. It's 14 months of flower arrangements and guest list bloopers, and a humorous commentary that anyone who's ever been a part of the wedding process can relate to. A couple in limbo for more than a year, a family adjusting to new members, friends watching their relationships change as a wedding nears. Getting down on one knee is merely the beginning.

Time to dream and a time to pray   10/19/2009 - 1:57 PM
You can't dream up days like this. Recently, a box with copies of "Hero's Tribute" arrived, the fulfillment of a life-long goal. On the same, day, we received the official word that my Dad has cancer. I've been at a loss of how to explain the conflic... (login or sign up to read more)

A new life   6/20/2007 - 12:03 PM
My wife and I welcomed our son, Nicholas Scott Garrison, into our lives last week. He's a big boy, 9 pounds, 8 ounces. Needless to say, things will never be the same. And I'm glad for it. There's just an abundance of joy and praise that goes with wel... (login or sign up to read more)
