long A.R.M. of the blog

Allan is a young-ish man (though older than you or I) who has traveled more widely than any other young-ish man I know.  You can tell by looking at his face.

Actually you can't tell because as of this writing his face is covered by an unruly beard  ("All over this").

However, if you could see his face, you would see the face of a person who has seen so much of what the world and the Church has to offer - the good, the bad, and the wacky.
Allan (or "Al" or "A-Rod" or "Reese" or "Re-Mac" or "Lil McDow Wow" to his friends) has a passion for keeping it real - how can we as Christians live fulfilling, meaningful, Godly lives? How can we make our faith a living, breathing reality?  This blog was his brainchild to help stoke some of those conversations, especially for young people.

When he isn't blogging, traveling, writing reports, and growing a beard, Allan can be found canoeing up steep mountainsides while playing guitar and singing beautifully.
