✨ “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” — Galatians 2:20

This is glove theology.
You weren’t made to perform without Him—you were made to be filled by Him.

That’s the message of my new book, The Glove. It’s not about becoming a “better glove.” It’s about surrendering to the Hand that was always meant to guide you.

A couple of years ago, I had to step away from the podcast I loved due to a change in jobs and responsibilities. Today, I own my own contracting company, am one year into a Master's program for clinical counseling, and have begun to write more frequently. In May, I self-published a book for high school graduates called Anchors. This month, my second book, The Glove, was published. Dedicated to my friend Dirk Bak, The Glove shows what it means to be filled by the hand of God.

A glove without a hand is limp, lifeless, and unable to do the work it was made for.
So are we—until we’re filled by the Spirit of God.

The Glove: Filled by the Hand of God is a call to discover your true design and let Christ live through you.
