The Promise to Neigh at Every Horse Statue
Have you ever found yourself alone in a park, it’s freezing cold, the sun setting, and you stumble upon one of the world’s largest horse statues? How wonderful! A horse statue over 2 stories high, since I’m a statue nut, this was extremely special to see. I also fancy horses, and the sounds they make, […]

72 Hours of Greatness: The Legend of Redford Hewlett
For the past month we have hardly seen our 16-year old son, Redford. He is a straight-A student, leads our church congregation in music every Sunday, and seems to be asked to a girl’s choice dance at a different school every other evening. And yet he has gone missing for almost the entirety of […]
The Carbon Promise
Imagine showing up at a high school to speak to the faculty and realize THEY’RE ALREADY TEACHING THE PROMISE!!! This happened to me recently, when I drove to Central Utah, to a city named Price, and visited Carbon High School. Principal Jarad Hardy had reached out to say he had seen my video about […]
The Ice Bath Promise
It’s 5 AM. I wake up cold, since I seem to always be cold. Even as I sit in my office in the middle of a summer heatwave, I have a jacket on. Today it is fall, and outside the temperature is in the low 40’s here in Utah. I rip off the covers […]

Sandbags to the Rescue
“If we don’t fill and place over 1,000 sandbags in the next week we could lose The Ranch.” For over 100 years, our extended family has enjoyed the beautiful Pine Valley along the mighty Provo River east of Park City, Utah, considered by many to be the most pristine mountain valley in the entire […]
The Unavailable Barbell
Whether you can tell by looking at me or not, I workout every single day (except Sundays). If you accidentally touch my arm then you’ll know it’s true. Otherwise, just seeing me on stage, you’d never know that I live for the gym and to exercise. I LOVE IT. There’s a very simple move I’ve […]
