Vibram FiveFingers: Objections and Responses
Ever since purchasing my Vibram FiveFingers I have heard (and seen) many different reactions to them. One of the most common is the glance-look away-stare. People see them then self consciously look away only for their curiosity to win out. Then they stare. This is the response from most strangers. Understandable. Who wants to walk up to a guy they don’t know and ask about his...
Read MoreWord-Action Disagreement
I came up with a phrase, a truth, a while back which has really changed the way I approach commitments, promises, goals, and life in general.

Read MoreShoes and Evangelism
I think it has been pretty clear recently that I have been enjoying some new shoes. No worries, people. This is not another post about my Vibram FiveFingers but it is a post inspired by them.
