digging deeper
[2008] Now I’m into my 40s, it’s a new season of life with increasingly more soberness. Accepting more of who I am and recognizing that I’m very unconventional, won’t fit in a box, often hard for others to figure out.
[2001] Where I am in my life journey: I am intent on seeing life change up close. I believe that my life is to be lived as an ‘open book’, transparent for people to see my humanity, and to see Christ living in and through me. I believe that real relationships make all the difference. more on what makes dj tick . . . + read my retro testimony, pre-web, pre-seminary, pre-emerging (circa. 1990)
