There’s so much I can say about my Dad, Jim Hamby, but I don’t think I could do it justice if I sat here and typed all day long. In a time when such a large portion of pastors drop out of the ministry due to stress and burnout, my Dad persevered no matter how [...]

Comcast acquires NBC
Sweet, my company just bought NBC! I’m not exactly sure if and how this will affect myself as an employee but it’s kind of cool to be working for a company that buys NBC! It’s also reassuring to be employed with someone that’s able to shell out $13.5 billion in the middle of a recession. [...]

Man, Vacation is Hard!!
Vacation. That word used to bring such pleasure to me. It evoked memories of fun, candy, rides, beaches and most of all, relaxation. So, when we were planning our first official “family” vacation this year, all of those memories were in the forefront of my mind. But, as I quickly found out, I might as [...]

Remember That You Will Be Dead Soon
I saw this quote from Steve Jobs (CEO of Apple) and I thought it was 1 of the best thoughts about leadership and seizing the day that I have seen in a while. “When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like “if you live each day as if it was your [...]
