If you caught my “Big Squeeze” post on Friday, you know things have been exciting around the Paper Mango camp these days, but I thought I’d expound on that a bit today and give you a little peak inside the madness. You may remember the invitations I’ve been working on for my sister-in-law Reneé and [...]

I spent four weeks traveling around Japan during my “gap year” between high school and college and I too can proudly claim to have been stuffed into a train by an Japan Rail employee.  What does this have to do with anything?  This is kind of what my week has felt like.  I’ve gotten a [...]

If you follow me on Twitter you’ve likely already heard about the fire this morning at Neighborhood Ministries. I wanted to take a minute to expound on the 140 character blurbs and let you know how important Neighborhood is to me personally.
