One of my greatest experiences with God:

Probably my first mission trip to Mexico back in 2000. Think of the feeding of the five thousand in the gospels. I saw it happen. We were handing out bags of food to the poor and the line was unbelievable. I told the gentleman next to me that we were going to run out of food and he just said, “See what God can do.” Well, when all the people were fed, we still had 12 bags of food left. God is still in the miracle business.

Most people don’t know this about me:

I cry when watching certain movies. Ever see “November Christmas”?
