On March 4th, 1987, God gave me a little brother. It took some years, but he’s become one of my closest friends. Today, Steve is my right-hand sound man at church. He’s always had a gift for music and sound. He sang before he talked, and I can remember him writing symphonies when he was ten years old. He learned how to play viola by ear (which is crazy hard) in the 5th grade, and he plays bass at church without sheet music because he has perfect pitch!

Call me jealous.

In April, Steve attended an Awaken workshop I hosted. It was so much fun to have him there. I got to help him work through who God says he is, and how God has designed him to play in the building of the Kingdom! It was an honor to see Steve connect aspects of his life together that he hadn’t before. That’s always a humbling experience for me. I can’t believe God allows me to help people in that way. Steve (and I!) left excited and energized, knowing that God had a unique purpose for his life…
