By guest writer Nathan Cunningham “I feel like you’re going to become a bride soon…” I overheard another passenger tell Holly as we made our way back to Alabama. It was February 2011 and we had both joined a missions trip down to New Orleans to evangelize during Mardi Gras, one of the world’s largest […]
Katie is a distant friend of mine from high school, and after we ran into each other a couple summers ago in our hometown of Rapid City, SD, I invited her and her husband, Jeff, to write for our blog. These two have an awesome story to share about their love for each other and […]
In the fall of 2011, my wife, Stefani, and I awakened to reality. We only have 12 short years left to shape our children’s lives, to teach them the way of Jesus’ mission and the values of His Kingdom. And these are the years they will remember. These are the years where stories are created […]
I feel like every couple should have a life mission or a theme to their relationship – something that defines their purpose as a couple. We found ours in Jeff’s 1st and 2nd Samuel class at Grace University. They had just finished reading through 1 Samuel 14. The Philistines were camped on one side of […]
Katie is a distant friend of mine from high school, and after we ran into each other this last summer in our hometown of Rapid City, SD, I invited her and her husband, Jeff, to write for our blog. These two have an awesome story to share about their love for each other and love […]
By Guest Writer Richard Freud I always believe in meeting Joe and Ann is not a coincidence for me. I still remember the first time when I met them in small restaurant near the college. I picked up some topics about politics. I didn’t expect they would respond. Actually most of tourists I met are […]
By Guest Writer Steve High Those that know my wife and I best were blown away several months ago when we told them that we had purchased tandem skydiving tickets for each other for Christmas. “Adventurous”, “thrill seekers”, “risk takers” are not words that people would typically use to describe either of us. From the […]
Joe and I love hearing other couples’ proposal stories. We found Bree and Nick’s story beautiful, inspiring, and very creative! We hope you enjoy reading about their engagement as much as we did! -Ann My name is Bree and after finding your site, I looked around for a while and was very impressed with the […]
So many adventures come to mind when I think about the time I’ve spent with the Bakers. I have often had the privilege of being a part of their Wild Love Story. The first time I ever really spent a good amount of time with Joe was in 2007 when Ann and I were moving […]
By guest writer Chris Lierheimer I got a call from Joe saying he would be in Longmont to skydive with Ann in a week. I was happy at the chance to see them again, and to jump with them of course. We had met and become good friends at the dropzone. I knew they were […]
I wouldn’t call it the third wheel, but part of the wheel. As we continued the treacherous four hour hike to the top of Imlay Canyon, rated in the top three most difficult and dangerous canyons in all of Utah’s Zion National Park, the thought of being trapped for hours in dark hypothermic pools of […]
Two months ago I had the privilege of being the best man for my friend Joe Baker. Joe and I have been friends since we first met in the fall of 2003. Our meeting and the friendship that developed was orchestrated by God. Through the eight years that followed, God used Joe and three other […]
Before I sent Joe an email asking if he had a photographer for his wedding, I said to myself, “This will probably be the craziest wedding ever.” And believe me, it was. Ann and Joe are an amazing couple with a pretty amazing outdoor skillset – and we used just about every one of them […]
Years ago men used to have go through stages in their lives. When they turned into young men, the older respected men around them would pass on their approval through initiations. These young men would have to earn the right to become men. In our world today we have lost something vital in a young […]
The honorary position held by “Best Man” seems to be an outdated tradition that lends no real significance. Were my responsibilities as a best man supposed to carry some lasting value? When you think about a bachelor party, it cost so much money; does it really prepare the groom? And why rent or buy a […]
