The newest addition to our family has been rockin' my faith a little. Baby Sloan's only a month old, but he's already messin' with my head! I don't hold it against him, though; I know it's not intentional! (ha)
But it never fails--every time I hold him to give him a bottle, or some comfort, or just some love (he's got those ultra-chubby extra-kissable cheeks on him), and especially when he's sleeping on my chest--I'm struck by not only the awesome responsibility of parenthood, but by the honest and complete trust that he has in me as his daddy.
Then it hits me...this is how I should be with God. Just as our new baby relies completely upon us as parents to provide and care for him, I should be relying completely on my Abba Father to provide and care for me. After I've done all that I can to the best of my knowledge and ability, I need to step back, breathe, relax, and TRUST completely in God for the results.
How much time do we waste because of worry? I'm determined to waste less, and trust more...

Who is this guy?
- Brandon Hollis
- I am a husband to a truly beautiful woman, father to two incredible boys (and a girl on the way), and I get to be the worship pastor at a church that is true to its name: Mercy Church KC. I am captivated by the character of God and passionate about connecting people with Him through a worship-driven life. I also have a weakness for Haribo gummy bears!

I don't think I'm crazy, but if you do, please don't blame Mercy Church for it. I bump my head a lot.
