One Month





It has now been a month since my big move to Nashville, and with the exception of a few funky curve balls, life has been brilliant. After a month of crazy changes, I thought I would update you on a few of my favorite new things....


I have a wonderful apartment and a great roommate, who will be returning from tour tomorrow!! 

I'm working at Brentwood-Benson as a music sales rep, I love the people I work with there, they make it a joy to go to work everyday.  It's great going from a job you dreaded daily to one you actually enjoy!!

I'm attending & helping at Crosspoint Church. Pete Wilson, the head pastor at Crosspoint, is a dynamic speaker and his messages seem to speak straight to me. This is also the where my friend Stephen Brewster is the creative arts pastor, he is helping me get plugged in. 

On Monday nights, I help out with People Loving Nashville, which is a group of people who feed & clothe homeless people. They not only help people, but they build relationships with the people and take time to look deeper into the people's lives, instead of looking past them like so many do. The stories you hear and the things you learn, from the people who show up, are quite interesting and very eye opening to simple things we daily take for granted. 

I'm very grateful to my friends who have helped make this move so amazing. My friend Amy keeps me up with all the cool trendy places...haha.. last night she took me out to see Steel Magnolia... Not only did I enjoy a great show, but we had friend pickles - a totally new thing, I've now experience twice. After the show we went to Cafe Coco and I had Canadian French Fries - if you haven't had them, be open minded and try them. 

My friends/family at CMC are some of the most amazing people ever. CMC alum are slowly taking over Nashville, and now that CMC is located here, it's only going to grow. I love knowing that they are right down the road.

This is all for now, but there is so much more to come!!
