This is me!

About Me. I grew up in Draper, Utah, and have lived in Utah my entire life of 51 years. I am a Mormon with a great family of 3 boys and 3 girls. Mostly I love my life, but I am always in search of self-improvement.

I took on a challenge today. For 21 days I am going to do and think about things that will bring me closer to Christ. Then on November 18th, I will be presenting what I have learned to my Relief Society friends. I need to see some results, so here I go. I will commit to taking all of the challenges in this book "21 Days Closer to Christ," and recording my results each day.

Each step of the journey introduces a new concept that will help me come to know and recognize the hand of the Lord in my life. With an emphasis on daily scripture study and personal prayer, each chapter concludes with an assignment designed to help me apply and personalize concepts such as humility, gratitude, and listening to the Spirit. In the rush of everyday life, this unique book provides a refreshing pause and the opportunity to focus our efforts on becoming closer to Christ.

I want to see a transformation, and record my journey through words and pictures. So here I go... Watch me.

My Journey Begins

This blog is based one a book titled, "21 Days Closer to Christ" by Emily Freeman. While accepting her challenges for the next 21 days, I hope to find myself closer to Christ.

I'm on a quest, which will be a journey though a process of self improvement, spiritual enlightenment, and commitment to a life of service. I believe by focusing on these aspects, I will significantly improve my life. Follow me through my quest and see how my life changes though the process.
