Tell us a little about yourself. I've been married to Cyndi, my best friend in
the entire world, for the past 15 years. We have
four children that I adore. I love spending
time with family, travel, baseball -- especially
the Chicago Cubs and Minnesota Twins.
What was your motivation behind this project? I love the Quick Questions series of books
published by Youth Specialties. My family and I
were driving from Minneapolis to Chicago and I
began to ask my own children questions that
eventually turned into this book. We've used
these questions with the students in our
ministry and they love it.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? I'm hoping that Choose Your Top 3 will help
youth workers, parents, teachers, and students
gain a better understanding of each other.
Choose Your Top 3 is a discussion starter book
that reveals more about a person than the
average discussion starter book. Why? Because,
the questions are asked in such a way that they
require the person to give three answers. I
love the unique insights that this book offers
into the teenagers in our lives.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? I love the writings of Mark Buchannan, Louie
Giglio, Leith Anderson, Chuck Colson, Philip
Yancey, Donald Miller, Elmer Towns, Dietrich
Bonhoeffer, Rob Bell, Doug Fields, and Rick
Warren.
I love the music of Chris Rice, Keith Green,
Rich Mullins, David Crowder, Tim McGraw, Sara
Groves, and Casting Crowns.
