RSB hitting the road

We just finished up some rehearsals, getting ready for next week's tour with Charlie Hall Band, as well as the album release shows starting March 23. This band is incredibly tight and creative. As always, they are the most musically creative band in their genre. And they were so... long before it was common.

I'm proud to be part of such an amazing group of guys, seeking to bring restoration to a pretty broken society, but with love and understanding. We're all running, and prone to wander. May we find what we're looking for, in Christ.

My heart is heavy, though, concerning how far I've drifted from creating music and worship. Please pray that he will bring my path back around to this. I have traveled the world, and seen God in places I never thought I would... whether I was surprised to be there, or surprised that He was. I want to bring all that he has shown and loved, back to him, by making something great with the skills he's given me. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.

We're hitting the road on Tuesday. Please remember Amanda and the kids, and pray for their sanity.

Let's bring this thing back from the dead...

Man, I wish I had a blog. Oh wait, I do.

I'm gonna blab about stuff on here. You might find it interesting. But most importantly, I'm TERRIBLE at staying connected to my friends. I love you guys very much, and I want to keep you up to date about my life with my beautiful amazing family, a great church, and a great job working with incredibly talented people.

We live in Houston, TX now. I work as a Media Director at www.ecclesiahouston.org, and a Road Manager for www.robbieseayband.com. I've had the privilege of working with Live, Evanescence (early years), and played with some great guys in a band called India (r.i.p.). We're thankful for the past and hopeful for the future. Here's to the ride....

Let's do this

we need each other

perfect ocean scene, from shore to sun
where cloud meets the sea, and sea meets the sand
how could we miss that he is there?

but, how much more in our voices here
conversation, sweet... laughter, near.
these hands, they comfort. these words, they heal.

we need each other. like the sand needs the sea
like the flower needs the sun. like the vine needs to be
wrapped around the tree. without you
there's no me

when will we learn? that what's simple is true
our friends will carry us home, their hands we'll hold
a hug, a kiss, can save a life. mostly your own

how can we return? from shore to sun
from sand and sea, to a home with thee
to say it all, in a word: free

we need each other. like the sand needs the sea
like the flower needs the sun. like the vine needs to be
wrapped around the tree. without you
there's no me

and in the end, we'll see
what we were made to be
as we our brothers' burdens hold
shoulders bruised from neighbors' toll
and in that day, a gracious friend
will reach aside with open hand
with all the love and hope you've shown
at last, my friend, we'll make it home
...............................................................................




"The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart;
devout men are taken away, and no one understands
that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil.
...they find rest as they lie in death." Isaiah 57:1,2


...at last, my friend, you've made it home
