First and Foremost,
I am delighted to be here with you! There is no better time than now to share our hearts and encourage one another. When JFH came to me about writing here i couldn’t wait to write. By the way, my name is Chris Taylor and i live in Destin, Fl where I was born and raised. I can’t justify moving anytime soon. Part of my life right now consists of being a new artist signed to www.becrecordings.com and learning to live the life of a touring artist. Obviously, this is just part of who I am. I love to surf, run, play Didgeridoo (More than everything else!) and hang with my wife and daughter. I am currently working on dying.
I can’t lie. Christ deserves everything. He deserves us to love Him and love our neighbors. He requires us to be vulnerable. I want to open a dialogue that encourages us here to be open with one another. To be humbled by Christ’s matchless love. A few nights ago my night was ruined.
I was heading to a movie with a friend to have some mindless fun and then it happened. I get in his car and hear a voice coming from his speakers. Rich Mullins ruined my night. No longer was I going to enjoy a giant green guy running around acting like an incredible Hulk. Rich Mullins instantly stopped me in my tracks. It’s like my soul’s thirst was being quenched. I had been panting for life and didn’t even realize it. I didn’t need a movie to get my mind off my worries; I needed to hear a heart aching for God. It was real. You could hear it in his voice and I could feel it in my soul. A couple of my dear friends were talking and it’s clearly no coincidence that guys like Rich Mullins and Keith Green were taken from us early in their lives. These men had a backbone and stood for something. I’m just at a point in my life where I want to act out my faith.
Let’s use this blog as a place to encourage one another and grow in Christ. Feel free to comment and share your life. Be vulnerable.
Warmly,
Chris
