Are you ready for the greatest adventure of your life? In my weekly podcast, we explore the adventures, challenges, triumphs, sorrows, and the fun of being a dad.

I am the father of 6 kids. My wife and I had four and then God blessed us with 2 more through adoption.  I think I have a unique perspective and experience to help fathers become the best dad possible.

I also love to interview other men trying to be great dads, step-dads, adopted dads, granddads, and foster dads. Let's help each other become the best men, husbands, and dads possible to leave a legacy that will endure.

I share some thoughts and observations about being a dad from my experience in El Salvador.

    255 - The Secret to 35 Years of Marriage

    Yesterday I got a private text message congratulating me and Judie Sedrick for our 35th Wedding Anniversary. This person also commented how he had always felt like his marriage was a burden instead of being founded on friendship and love. I thought I'd share 10 things that have helped Judie and I build our relationship over the past 35 years. I hope these help you and would love to hear what you've found helpful


    Be in hot pursuit of your wife
    Little things matter
    Sarcasm can cut the heart
    Date night
    Let it go! It’s not that important
    Be the protector of her heart in how you speak to her and about her
    Be present- just because you're there doesn’t mean you’re there
    Dream, plan, and work together
    If you are a couple of faith pray together
    Love fiercely
