Web geek by day (and early morning sometimes), husband, father, volunteer and friend by night. I am a self-taught web developer which has flourished into a good career, and today my focus is mostly on online marketing, project management, social media, HTML5, CSS3, and OOP PHP. I'm always reading a variety of things that will continue to feed my passions: online marketing, relationships, church leadership, and my own walk with Christ.

I've found the key to happiness (and survival) for me is to be well organized and structured so that I can do a 'good job' at everything. But one of these days I'm going to be able to withdraw from everything else and just spend my days w/ God, Gaby, family and friends.

Why I Go On Mission Trips

2 weeks ago

by Shaun Worcester in Personal

Why do I go on short-term mission trips? We do different things with each trip but helping people and sharing the gospel is always the main thing. It's also an opportunity to take myself out of my comfort zone with technology and work, and focus on His higher calling for my life. One day, God will be calling my whole family to serve somewhere in full-time missions. And we'll say YES!!

by Shaun Worcester in Finances

Yesterday, after paying a little extra here and there and building up our savings... we were able to pay off the remaning balance, in full - 21 months early! This has been a great vehicle for us, and has proven to be very reliable. We've made several cross-country trips in it to Tennessee, Kentucky, and down to Laredo, TX and back a couple years ago.

Traffickers use the chaos in the respective host city of the Super Bowl to move victims through. I love the Super Bowl, and I'm excited about the upcoming Harbowl.

by Shaun Worcester in Inspirational

I've been a Christian most of my life, and like many I sometimes (okay, often) take His salvation for granted. As I got more into the book, there were several great things that Max shared that reminded me of exactly why we call Him the Savior.

NFL’s Man of the Year Award

by Shaun Worcester in Biography

I'm frustrated that the NFL and a good chunk of our society turns a blind eye to infidelity. I remember all the hoopla around Steve McNair's death. But take a look at how he died? Is it just me? I think the NFL's Man of the Year award should be renamed to honor someone else... maybe even Emmitt Smith.
