Happy Birthday to the 🌎’s #1 human @samcralli!!! You won’t find anyone who is more intentional, present, and loving than this beaut. There’s no one I’d rather adventure, laugh, study, worship, create, or even cry with. She radiates God’s love, compassion, beauty, and so much more for the whole world to see. Good news is we’re only just getting started. I love you, babe!

Last week, I went to Alaska. This week, I made a list of things I’ve learned in six months of self employment, maturity, dating, and more. There’s a link in my bio if you’re so inclined.
God (and the bugs) showed up in rural Wisconsin tonight.
The only better catch than her 🐟 is @samcralli herself. I couldn’t imagine a better companion for our five-day adventure exploring everything Tennessee has to offer. —- Thanks to @ccannon21 @imtylerhays @chriswhill @bryancterrill and so many others for their generous hospitality, intentional conversation, and good times. Can’t wait to see each of you again soon! God is so good.
#TBT to Brad and @marciamatt12’s chicken finger surprise
I didn’t know Amazon Basics expanded to model homes.
I did a thing today. Here are 10 things I learned: 1. There’s so much mud. Like, the kind of mud you’ll possibly lose a 👟 to. 2. You have to 🧗🏻‍♂️ a wall just to get in the starting gate. Don’t worry ... it’s not as hard as it looks. 3. Doing it as a team is the only way to do it. 4. Even if you skip out on a few burpees here and there (or everywhere), you still get a 🏅 and 👕. 5. 🏃🏻‍♂️ is great, but 🏋🏻‍♀️ training would’ve gone a long way on many of the obstacles. 6. The only thing more plentiful than mud is wristbands. 7. Bring a garbage bag to put your disgusting 👔 in. 8. Even if you’re confident you can’t complete an obstacle, it’s at least worth trying (unless it’s the rope climb ... ❌). 9. Take your time at the 🚿 station. And don’t be afraid to splash some down the back of your pants or you’re in for a pleasant surprise the next time you 💩. 10. If I can do it, anyone can do it 💪🏼.
Incredible night thanks to @francisandthelights and @chancetherapper
I’ve been dreaming about this day for years. First as a fan following the excitement that was the #USMNT’s run at the 2014 #WorldCup. Then when I joined @ussoccer in 2015, this day became my primary focus. We dared to dream up an audacious content plan that would help fans connect with the team and each other in new and deeper ways. . We spent hours, weeks, and months in meetings, preparing pitches, engaging in big conversations, starting to create, traveling around the world, etc. We had a plan in place, and frankly, one I was extremely proud of and excited to execute, regardless of the personal cost. The #WorldCup would be my last hurrah in sports, then I’d take a couple months off, get myself back together, and find new challenges to tackle. Both the plan for the content and my life were perfect. . It turns out God had a different plan. On Oct. 10, 2017, we failed to qualify. With that, every project we planned was trashed. You can’t execute a world class content plan when you aren’t in the World Cup. Then in January, the Lord opened a series of doors that led my to start my own consultancy and I’m loving every minute of it. Seriously, it’s great. . There will always be a part of me that wonders what could’ve been. Instead, you’ll have to trust me. You’d be surrounded by U.S. Soccer everywhere you go today, engaging in players’ stories, watching hours of interactive live programming, connecting with other fans, gathering for exciting watch parties, and so much more. Even if just for a month, we’d have this great nation wrapped around our finger. . Despite all of this, I’m still looking forward to the games. As a soccer fan, there’s nothing better than a #WorldCup. And thanks to the incredible work by my friends at the bid, perhaps we’ll get another shot in 2026. Now let’s watch the world’s game together. . P.S. Here’s every photo of me wearing my favorite jacket I have saved on my phone.
Nearly a year ago, I promised @bkillin7 I’d make it to a @vegasgoldenknights game this season. Disappointed it had to be the last one, but what an incredible atmosphere he, @krisknief9, @clintmccomb and the rest of the team have created in Vegas. Not nearly as fun to be in the stands for the Cup ceremony, but plenty of good memories from ‘15.
