I really enjoy playing my trumpet in schools all over the world, and I REALLY love when I get thank you notes in the mail from the kids. Thank you to my Oregon friends at Grace Christian School for your awesome letters! I can't wait to come back and play for you guys again in a few years.

I just got back from a mid-west/western tour. The tour consisted of 63 shows in 26 days, and covered 8 states and over 7,200 miles. It was so good to see some familiar faces and meet quite a few new people. The audiences ranged from small and intimate settings to packed out places with lots of people. We played at a ton of middle schools, high schools and colleges during the days, and churches at night. It was just a great time. Two of the the...

Where did the summer go? It honestly feels like we just put away our winter stuff and now we are just about to enter fall. There were so many things that we wanted to do this summer but just didn’t. We ran out of time and never got to them. That stinks. Oh well, there is always next summer. Can you imagine what life would be like if we had enough time to do everything we needed to and to get everything done! Wow, that would be awesome. But the...

THE FORTH OF JULY !!!!!! I love this holiday! I am a very proud American and I truly love this country. My one regret that I have in life is that I did not serve in the military. I wish I could have, but God lead us into full time ministry and for a few health issues, there is no way they would have taken me anyways. For this whole week you see more flags than any other time of year. You see people’s pride in this country and you see people...

What a great time of year. Even though it has been raining a lot, the flowers are still blooming and the weather is warmer. Fall is still my favorite time of year, but the summer is pretty nice. Last week was Memorial Day and tomorrow is the remembrance of D-Day. I am blessed to be playing at a service tomorrow in Savanah Ga. and had the privilege to play some services on Memorial Day. I wish more people would take time during these two...

My update this month is very simple……Things here at CRM are going well. God continues to open new doors to new places and continues to fill up our calendar with a lot of concerts all over the world. We have some international things scheduled and working to schedule more. 2019 calendar is full and the next two years are filling up fast. Now, most people would measure the success of this ministry based off of what I have just said. “The more...

I just got back from a North Carolina tour. I had a great time, fun concerts and saw several people turn their lives to Christ. I do love what I do. Being able to travel all over the world playing my trumpet is one of the best jobs in the world, but……………….traveling all over the world playing my trumpet is not worth it AT ALL. March 30 was Kelli’s and my 23rd anniversary. In being married for 23 years, I have been home for 3 anniversaries. I...

My family has recently started to watch this show on TV call “Dr. Pimple Popper”. It is a reality show that follows the practice of a dermatologist and her weird and over the top cases. I guess you can say that one of the highlights of the show that my family enjoys is when the Doctor begins to squeeze these large cysts on people’s bodies. Some of them just look like the Doctor is popping a baseball size zit. It is pretty nasty, but for some...
