The Weight of "The Walk"
I'd like to think that for all the triathalons, Half-Marathons (okay, just 1 of those), and Spartan races I've done, that I have spent a lot of my life working out.
Where the daily, (sometimes mundane?) of the herd meets the quiet wisdom of the Shepherd. These are the reflections gathered while riding mountain trails, milking in the barn, and learning to lead our family to Jesus Christ.
In the middle of the beautiful chaos, these are the lessons that keep our souls rooted and our hearts full. Welcome to the heart of the Herd.
Ayeka: Where He Finds You In The Mess
I’ll be honest, I haven’t ever been great about Come Follow Me study. I’ve been off and on, hit, lots of misses, and now we’re in 2026. I’ve made it a goal this year to study every night, even just for a few minutes in the special “journal edition” CFM manual I bought myself for extra support (pro-tip: it's working!).

I remember going on some pretty amazing trail rides as a kid. Sometimes they were nice, easy rides; not too steep, nothing too crazy. But sometimes, they were bush-whacking, branch-breaking, skin-cutting adventures. They were exhilarating and I have grown to crave me a good, hard ride ... but as a child, I was terrified.
