My Goal

Thanks for visiting. I help you discern life from a biblical perspective, drawing on a half century of unique experiences, studies, and the school of hard-knocks.

I’m thankful that at my age I feel like my faith, fitness, and finances are in the best shape of my life, and I want you to feel that way too, or work a plan to get there.

My Path

My life has prepped me for this, having travelled the world for missions, played pro baseball and coached youth sports, studied history at Cambridge, managed finance for large corporations, and led investments for private funds.

I have many to thank for helping me discern, like my wife, children, and former coaches and teachers. I dedicate this channel to several people who each encouraged me to thrive in mind, body, and soul. I start with the “best practice,” Jesus Christ, the only perfect person. And I include my dad and my childhood hero John Muir. Since finance is part of stewardship, I include Muir because his vision and discernment led to the creation of national parks around the world, one of the greatest ideas in history.

What to Expect

In this age of info overload, I aim to write clearly and relatively concisely, turning complex situations into actionable wisdom.

Foundational Good News

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son (Jesus Christ as the only way to heaven based on His sacrifice that paid our death penalty for breaking God’s law), that whoever believes in Him should not die but have eternal life.”

I look forward to you joining Team Discerner.
