So. I’ve been spending about an hour a day (on days when I can) slicing up the Jocko Podcasts into JcNuggets, posting them on YouTube, and sharing the links through Twitter. I get through about 30-40 podcast minutes, depending on the speed of the internet connection that I have, also the speed of the computer…
Sit Rep Sunday October 16, 2022
I have to be honest here. I haven’t read a single book all month. But, being candid here, I did read the equivalent of a book in all the tutorials and troubleshooting sites and chats from Bluehost and ConvertKit employees to help me in my learning journey here on this site. So does that count…?…

I’ve been thinking and praying recently about various aspects of my life and how to have more balance. I once read in a book how if your life is not in balance, it’ll be like riding in a car with a flat tire: uncomfortable and ultimately damaging your wheel. He goes on to give you…
How On Earth Did I End Up Here?!?!?!
No, it’s not anything that dramatic. Recently I celebrated my 18th year since first setting foot in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. It wasn’t a big party, just an evening together over ice cream. My fellow missionaries, who also happen to be my in laws, wanted to know the story of how I got here in the…

Well, this website seems to be dying of improvements… I’ve tried with MailChimp, MailerLite, and Constant Contact. And there are things to add to the site to ‘fully optimize’ whatever function is advertised and each time my site has been locked up and out and things have changed up on their own. I feel bad…

Been using a program/process called Inscribe the Word. The lady there takes a topic per month and put a few verses down per day and you write it out by hand. The reasoning behind it is that sometimes we get so familiar with the Word that it sometimes doesn’t hit us like it used to…
Sit Rep Sunday July 24, 2022
So I’ve finally gotten around to cutting up the Jocko Podcasts into slices of information. I first had the idea in January, 2018, but… (list of excuses) and we all know, ALL MY EXCUSES ARE LIES!!! #ifyouknow,youknow The long and short of it was that it wasn’t very high on my list of priorities, so…

Sit Rep Sunday July 10, 2022
Whew… it’s over just in time for this Sit Rep Sunday. I’ve been going through all the things that the boys and I have, and have been clearing out the stuff that we no longer use. It’s been bittersweet. My boys are growing up so fast (don’t they all), and their interests and intellectual capacities…
Sit-Rep Sunday July 3, 2022
I’ve been asked a few times recently, ‘What do you do these days?’ and I figured if some people come out and ask, then maybe there will be a few that wonder but don’t ask. The short answer is that I mainly homeschool my three boys. I cover academic and practical subjects, as well as…
