The noise of the politics. The noise of the media punditry. The noise of the blame shifting. The noise of the silence. It’s all drowning out the noise of those who are feeling so heavy and hurt and broken and bewildered. And devalued. So I gathered black voices, voices of those who are lamenting right now, to share what they are feeling in this American moment. The episode The Black People Speak is in your podcast feeds now from The Altitude Collective. Stop listening to people commentating on h...

In addition to hand washing and disinfectants, people are looking for more innovative ways to help protect themselves against the coronavirus. It’s no secret that food can be used to support our immune system and enhance our mental health. Decades of research has confirmed that certain nutrients in food have powerfully medicinal benefits. However, food choices are just one piece of the puzzle. Getting good quality sleep, managing stress, being active and of course washing your hands all play a p...

SHOW NOTES ...You find the thing you love to do, and you learn about it, you go after it and that's what you do- that's what you're meant to do. I spent a lot of time in the Word and spent a lot of time figuring out that my identity is not defined by what I do, but who I am and who I am in Christ. On Photography: No matter how much technical skill you have it's not going to replace an artistic eye. Your skill doesn't always equal talent in your field. On Heroism: It challenged me to try to be th...
Show Notes We live in a society that no longer appreciates conversation. Conversation has just gotten lost in this broadcast type society. I want to try to get out of the muck and mire of peoples opinions of whats going on and elevate those types of conversations into what we can do to better ourselves, one another, our communities, relationships with one another and elevate the conversation. We may be sitting in our little silo'd areas thinking the same thoughts as one another and not even know...
The most difficult journey is really just being true to myself; not losing myself and making sure I’m treating this gift of music, this journey of music, with open hands. If I’m openhanded with it, I can allow things to happen, I can allow things to come in and I can allow things to leave, and not carry that disappointment — but I can carry gratefulness and thankfulness. I was unsure of my abilities to be a father but the moment my oldest came into the world, I recognized him. I try to live my l...
There is purpose in your pain. God will put you in a position you may not be ready for but He’ll give you grace. Never say never! What God calls you to will make sense/coincide with who you are, your natural abilities, and the things you gravitate to. God is the source; everything else provided is the resource. Without faith it’s impossible to please God. - Hebrews 11:6 Don’t let fear of falling, or fear or failing keep you from seeing a miracle that God wants you to see or experience. Exercise ...
Show Quotes: You’re too awesome to live in chaos. On creating balance in the midst of busyness: priority over balance. May the things on your list be the things that light you up! Who do you want to be and how do you want to show up? Out of all of your love tanks, fill the one that means the most so you can pour out from it. Our pain can sometimes be an access point to someones heart // “a blessing and a half” Loss doesn’t get any easier. The getting easier comes from talking about it (whatever ...
