Easter Sunday


Sunday is the celebration of Easter, but in our household, it is also the celebration of Joy's birthday.
What a great journey it has been with this lady.
I am SO HONORED to be able to call her my wife, my love, my friend.


Joy is the JOY of my life.
We have so much fun together.
She is a godly woman, passionate about God and His Word.
That is so wonderfully evidenced by the wonderful teaching she gives each month at Comfort and Joy.

She is passionate about creating. She loves creating music, menus, house plans. Some of you may not know that Joy is an accomplished architect. She has designed four of our homes.

Happy Birthday Joy. I love you and am most proud of you.
