Brittany Maynard Isn’t Brave, But These People Are

In: Building Hope, Fear on: November 3, 2014

She is being heralded as brave for making this choice, and for publicizing it weeks in advance. But she isn’t brave. Don’t misunderstand me. I am not jumping into the fray with my opinion on whether physician-assisted suicide for terminal cases should be legal, or whether it’s ethical, or even if …

A Day in the Life of Anxiety Arthritis and Writing

In: A Day in the Life on: August 20, 2014

Meet Stephanie Fishman. A fellow writer, I actually met her through an unusual conversation where we talked (as strangers) about blog themes and preferences.

A Day (Or 14 Years) in the Life of Chronic Mouth Pain

In: A Day in the Life on: July 30, 2014

Today’s interview in the Day in the Life series is with Robert D. Smith. I met Robert via an email conversation about my upcoming book Perfectly Abnormal eight months ago. Since then, he’s been a near-constant source of encouragement to me, challenging me to push the envelope with my branding and …

Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Sjogren’s Syndrome Didn’t Stop Jeana From Starting a Soup Kitchen

In: A Day in the Life on: July 23, 2014

This week’s interview is a little different than the last three. I met Jeana Weiss in the process of starting this series, so we don’t know each other very well. But, I am honored to interview her today nonetheless, and inspired by her resilience. She is amazing, and does not let her chronic …

In: A Day in the Life on: July 16, 2014

I will never forget the day I met Sandy Kim, today’s interview in my A Day in the Life of… series. My wife and I drove over an hour with two boys and Nerf guns in tow, so our youngest could be an extra in the pilot for a TV show that combined the best elements of Saving Private Ryan, Codename: Kids …

A Day in the Life of Fibromyalgia

In: A Day in the Life on: July 2, 2014

Christa Sterken is my first interview in the A Day in the Life of... series. And honestly, she is one of my favorite people in the world. She is like the sister I never had, and I am sure we would argue over who was the little sibling between the two of us. (I'm the big brother). Christa also has …

Porn: Something Christians Don’t Do

In: Building Hope on: June 26, 2014

This post is something a bit different than what you would normally see on my site. It is a guest post on a vital topic, but this guest post is by an anonymous Christian. They have chosen to share a bit of their story in a very transparent way, with the hope of encouraging or challenging each of …

When I Bear-Hugged a Hero in Burger King

In: Community on: June 23, 2014

One January day in downtown Phoenix, a man in his mid-twenties limped up to me and asked if I could buy him some lunch. After saying yes, I walked with him to Burger King, listening to his story: He was in the Army, deployed to Afghanistan. After being there for six weeks, his leg got blown off …

Balance is Hard When You Have More Priorities Than Appendages

In: Faith, Fear on: June 9, 2014

I remember the days when I only had one project to work on at a time. I zeroed in one thing and stayed focused until it was done. Whether a book draft, an analysis for my job, or a blog post, I could stay in my sweet spot until it was done. I was overreacting to the myth of multitasking. Did you …
