So, here we are.  Another huge milestone for me in less than one month.  First military retirement, then 100,000 subscribers.  What’s next?  Well, I do turn 40 this year, so there’s that, haha.

I made a video today to share my extreme gratitude for you and all your support of my efforts over these last 10+ years.  While I did make this video to express my thanks, I also made it because I want you to see the struggles and hardships that lead me here.  We all have a journey, and on that journey, there are several paths we can take.  I am glad that all my paths lead me here because I met you!

What you will find here is that I could never have done this on my own.  I first needed the support of my wife, I then needed to trust my faith in God and know that He would put me where I needed to be to steward my God-given gifts.  Lastly, I needed you and your support to ensure we could sustain this ship and ensure it didn’t sink prematurely.

I am eternally grateful for you and your support.  I hope this message inspires you today.  Pursue your dreams, double down on your God-given gift, and know that there is great reward in your obedience.

P.S.  I am knee-deep in course production so if you comment or email and I do not respond, please don’t take offense.  I am reading everything, but I am also struggling there are only so many hours in a day 🙂
