I’m 33, married to, this girl, Rachel. 
I’m a self described husband.writer.friend.fan.
My wife says I’m like a piece of chocolate cake. Maybe white chocolate?
I’m an employee of Celebration Church, but this blog doesn’t necessarily represent the views of said organization…. translation: i sometimes am whacked out and definitely need lots of prayer.
-was a high school teacher at Pedro Menendez then BTHS here near Jacksonville, FL for 7 years.
-Rachel and I work at Celebration Church-going into our 6th year working with youth, prisoners, and at risk kids.
-I love to write stories of freedom, speak love, and travel like it’s goin out of style.
-I’m a HUGE Johnny Cash fan. Don’t call me trendy.
-Several of my favorite people in the world currently are behind bars. I go see them every Friday and keep their families up to date.
-I’m a wus when it comes to tattoos…and would like to be free of public opinion in my decision making process.
-I have an unhealthy affection for coffee. and for wearing my kilt in public.
thanks for joining me on the journey.

Comment by Tom Bunker June 11, 2008 @ 5:44 pmSorry, can’t refer to you as Big John…why? Because I spent birth to 6 yrs old living below Big Johnny Cash’s house in Casitas Springs CA.
Love the musings here, keep it up
If you want to know some Johnny Cash stories get in touch.

Comment by Big John June 14, 2008 @ 9:45 amHi. I know this is a weird way to get a hold of you, but it seemed like the best way. My finance’s mom suggested that you might be a good person to perform our wedding ceremony seeing as you used to be his you minister (?). His name is Jake Carpenter . . .
Anyway, I would like to talk to you about this, so if you could email me back, that would be great!
