What does an oil and gas lawyer have to say about faith and work? I’ve been thinking about it for a while. I’m the General Counsel at Desert Royalty Company, an elder at The Paradox Church, and co-owner (with my wife) of Monkey and Dog Books in Fort Worth, Texas. I’m dreaming of rental properties and currently building a spec home—because apparently I wasn’t busy enough. I live in Fort Worth with my wife Brooke and our three daughters. I’m convinced that spreadsheets, sermons, and bookshelves all have something to do with each other, and Monday mornings matter as much as Sunday mornings.
