Write Down Your Anchors
I can’t do roller coasters anymore. I’m not sure exactly when it happened, but somewhere in the aging process my ability to handle G-force, high velocity twists, and any kind of upside down mysteriously disappeared. Occasionally, I ignore this reality. My...
NO SHAME IN HIS GAME
Every summer, I pick a book for my son and me to read together. This year, we read The Prodigal God by Timothy Keller. My 15-year-old and I were talking about it today…and he said, “He wasn't ashamed of his son.” (Beautiful observation.) His son had...
When You Don’t Know What to Do
Years ago, our family took a trip to London. It was a surreal week of exploring old castles, riding the “tube,” and driving on the wrong side of the road (look kids, Big Ben!). We visited Stonehenge, toured Oxford, and even had lunch at The Eagle and...
Living Spiritually Awake
I used to love Frank Peretti books. If you don’t know that name, he was the Stephen King of the Christian world in the late 80s and 90s. This Present Darkness, Piercing the Darkness, The Oath—Peretti basically wrote spiritual horror novels (or at least that’s...

I recently had a conversation with a close friend. Most people know him as a pastor, but he answers to several other titles: entrepreneur, achiever, builder, driver…you get the picture. He said something that stopped me: “I don’t know how to drive and be...
That Trip Was a Big Deal
This week, I’ve asked my friend and colleague Katie Olson to share with you. Katie leads marketing and helps oversee our short-term trips at The Stone Table. She brings nearly 20 years of experience across both the marketplace and vocational ministry, giving...
I Want to Want What You Want
I want a lot of things. That shouldn’t be surprising. All of us want stuff. Our human desires are endless. I want the new Honda Prelude (Boost Blue Pearl please). I want to visit Greece. I want Tyrese Haliburton to finish game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals with...
The Business of Loving Your Neighbor
The Business of Loving Your Neighbor Business gets a bad rap, and it usually hacks me off. If you’ve been around The Stone Table at all, you’re well aware of my disdain for the distorted caricature of the business world so often pushed and embraced by our culture. ...
