A Few of My Favorite Things:
Music:
“I love to play music. I grew up studying the drums for about 10 years but I rarely get to play anymore. But I love getting to lead worship when I can. My favorite band of all time is U2.” Sports:
“I grew up playing basketball, volleyball and surfing. Anytime I get a chance I try to do any or all of these three. My favorite sport is beach volleyball and enjoy spending time with my family at the beach.”
Movies:
“I just love going to movies. I don’t know what it is but it’s so much fun to me. Comedies and Action are my favorite type. I don’t think I really have an all time favorite movie though.”
Books:
“I really enjoy all types of books. Some of my all time favorite books are: The Ragamuffin Gospel by Brendan Manning; Chasing Daylight by Erwin McManus; and anything by Chip Ingram .”
What if’s? What if you weren’t in ministry?
I would most likely be doing music full time or doing something in marketing. But I don’t think the rock star inside ever completely dies.
What if you could spend time with any famous historical person?
Outside of Jesus, I don’t really know.
