1.)
Moving to east Atlanta after college in 2008, I knew God called me to go work at a church in that area, but I did not want to go for a lot of reasons.
2.)
Why God uses me when He has so many others that He could use
3.)
Pay off my debts, and support a few worthy ministries that I have worked with over the past few years.
4.)
I really enjoy the present, but if I had to go back, maybe college years, 20-23 was a fun time in my life.
5.)
Too many to name.
6.)
I am too honest, and sometimes I get into trouble.
7.)
While shooting some documentary footage in NYC in 2007, I almost got arrested in the Empire State Building security screening area in line to go up to the overlook. I am scare of heights and they mistook the sweaty, nervous, apprehensive guy for a terrorist when they scanned my backpack and found a large dense mass. They shut down security and I got surrounded and frisked. It scared me pretty bad, maybe not the craziest, but makes for an interesting story anyway.
8.)
When I was 13 years old, I was in a really bad car accident and had to have massive facial reconstructive surgery. Waking up the next morning after the accident and seeing my face completely distorted and busted up and only one eye working properly was a lot to handle. My injuries were so bad that the doctor took pictures and published my case in a medical journal and now my pictures are in medical text books. Over the next two years, God healed me completely, both eyes still work and there are no scars. God is good.
9.)
The church in the metro Atlanta area where I did not want to move. She volunteered in the sound booth doing projection/video stuff, and I was hired as the new sound engineer. I spent a few months convincing her to fall in love with me, and we have been married almost 7 months ago.
10.)
Failing God’s calling for my life, I focus on what He has put in front of me currently and do not worry about the past or the distant future.
