OnFire started as a weekly encouragement letter. I had a few ideas for a book, but I never seemed to have the time to work on them, so I started a letter to friends and family.

OnFire is all about faith and character. I take lessons from biblical characters and passages to talk about living out the Christian faith everyday.

OnFire is about real life. These are issues I deal with, so I figure that others do also. If I have trouble, and I’m supposed to have the training to deal with them, then others face the same things.

I’m amazed at the response to OnFire. Many people tell me they forward them. Promise Keepers Canada has picked up a number for their website. Friends use them in their ministry staff meetings. I’ve been asked to write for other publications.

Thanks for visiting OnFire. I hope it helps you live a life more fully devoted to Jesus Christ.

This summer is already different from any other summer I've experienced. Ian, our 15-year-old, is working at a Christian camp and has been away for more than a week. This is the longest stretch that he has been away from us and not been with family, and, to be honest, it has made me feel a little unglued. That's my best description for the feeling I've experienced. Kind of like one of the kitchen chairs when it starts to loosen up and needs a little glue. Its still together but it feels a little shaky and uncertain.
