What is your favorite restaurant?
An Atlanta Chick-fil-A Story…
Growing up in Atlanta… if word got out that I answered this prompt with anything other than Chick-fil-A… I’d probably get ostracized, kicked out of church, and have my house egged in the night by a pastor dressed like a ninja…
So yeah… let’s keep the chicken-lovin’ Bible Belt Army happy-happy, as Phil from Duck Dynasty would say…
Seriously though… it’s a freakin’ amazin’ place for fast eats.
Chick-fil-A was born here in Atlanta… started by Truett Cathy… a legend in these parts. A great Christian man… a man who really cared about his employees and his customers… he built his business on biblical principles… a man who was always closed on Sunday.
I’ve even got a personal story tied to him.
My ex-girlfriend’s grandmother owned and ran a newspaper here in Atlanta for many years called The Southside Insider. She was friends with Mr. Cathy… and he actually sold her the building for that newspaper for $1. I always thought that was pretty cool.
I never got to meet him… I almost did. Missed him a few times in passing… but I’ve been blessed to hear many stories about him.
So from its humble beginnings here in my city… Chick-fil-A is now everywhere. But it’s different here in Atlanta. Different than anywhere else.
Here… we’ve got the Dwarf Houses and Truett’s Grill.
If yall can fit through the door… then by all means… come on in and have a seat 😎
These places aren’t just fast food joints… they feel like actual restaurants. You can sit down… be waited on… and get menu items folks in other places have probably never even heard of.
One of them is found only at the Dwarf Houses and Truett’s Grill…
Ladies and gentlemen… I present to you… The Hot Brown.
Man…
Let me describe this thing!
It’s like a casserole-style dish with white meat chicken in a rich cream-style gravy like thick sauce… but it’s not a gravy, really, I don’t think… and it’s covered in melted cheddar… topped with strips of bacon… and served with toast.
You’re just gonna have to trust me on this one.
I wouldn’t lie to you.
my taste buds are elite.
I wish I had one right now.
And their sweet iced tea? elite too.
When I’m not goin’ with the Hot Brown… my next favorite is the spicy chicken sandwich with pepper jack and waffle fries. The mac ’n’ cheese is worth fightin’ for… and the cheesecake is straight-up badass.
So if you’re ever in the Atlanta area… now you know what you need to do.
I might just see you there.
Lunch is on me.
…
And in me.
…
Bawk! 🐔…

I Know You’re There 🎵 Nothing Else
History (2oO5)
Well, I think I’m overthinking this whole thing… About believing… in something I cannot see
‘Cause when I think about it
I think there’s no doubt about it
I do it every single day
Well, it’s just like the air
No one knows where it comes or where it goes
But when I breathe in I believe again and again
And if they say there’s no such thing
As Heaven or a God who waits for me
I just point to the air
And I know You’re there.
Hope yall enjoy the music and the message and have a blessed Sunday…

Only Grace 🎶 Next Thing You Know
Happy Resurrection Day! ✝️
So today I’m starting a new one on Matthew West… I’m a huge fan—especially his earlier stuff. So many songs just put together right… lyrically and musically. His first 3–4 albums are that good.
I saw him live back around 2o08 or ’o9—not exactly sure. It was a wild setup… out in the middle of nowhere… big open field on what felt like someone’s farm in Brooksville, Florida. But man—it was a sweet performance. He’s great live. There were other artists too… might’ve been a 3-day thing—I only went one day… memory’s a little foggy there 😁
Also Matthew is supposedly a super nice dude from what I hear… really loves people and his fans…
Anyway—these two songs are from his second album History (2o05)… super good. Check it out sometime…
🎵 Only Grace — History (2o05)
🎵 Next Thing You Know — History (2o05)
🎥 Also—check this out… i included a great bonus video of Matthew surprising people at Waffle House with a little live performance… awesome moment.
Live Waffle House surprise performance 👇 supercool! 💯

What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?
— the first hour, and then some
So… once my dreams let go
and morning rolls around…
I open my eyes—
and I’m instantly happy.
I’m glad a new day has begun for me.
I thank God…
tell Him I love Him…
just chill for a moment—
embracing His love for me.
Then I usually lay there for maybe ten minutes…
eyes open… just thinking.
Then I reach over—grab my phone…
reply to my girlfriend’s texts…
They’re always there waiting on me.
She’ll send a photo she took…
or a piece of her art…
a scripture she picked out just for me…
along with her words…
So Supergood to wake up to this…
After hygiene stuff—
I head to the kitchen… get my coffee…
make my way to the couch…
Start my morning devotions…
Two different ones I read…
“Streams in the Desert” — by Lettie Cowman
“My Utmost for His Highest” — by Oswald Chambers
Both from the 1920s…
both deep…
in different ways.
One poetic…
one piercing.
I read…
sit with it.
Think about it.
Then I pray…
I talk to God for a while—
real talk.
Then…
I shut my mouth.
I listen.
To what He has to say…
After that—
headphones on…
I open up YouTube Music
Choose something… then just let it go…
A mix of Christian and secular
Then comes one of my favorite parts—
I grab my guitar.
I try and learn one new song a week, sometimes more
Right now I’ve been learning…
“Infra-Red” — by Three Days Grace
Next up… “Fine Again” — by Seether
Most times…
I don’t use tabs…
don’t look up chords…
I just listen…
play what I hear.
Learning the lyrics are the main thing…
the guitar part I make my own…
in my own style…
usually…
I’ll jam for a while…
have some fun with it…
then it’s back for more coffee ☕️
Headphones back on…
Then I check in—
My ministry platforms…
my YouTube…
my blog…
I respond to people…
read what others are sharing…
I’m not a big commenter—
but I show up lol
Then later I think on…
pray on…
whatever I want to write or post…
or if it’s time for one of my weekly series posts—
I’ll do that…
post on my other Christian platforms…
make a YouTube short sometimes.
Then I hit my workout.
Every day—
except Wednesday and Sunday.
After that—
protein shake…
something to eat…
And yeah…
That’s been my mornings lately.
I’ve been on leave from work for about a month now…
So right now—
My job?
Is just having awesome days 😎
Also… at night… I read the Bible and whatever other book I’m reading… right now it’s Hemingway’s memoir “A Moveable Feast”
After I read… I listen to more music… then I spend a good amount of time praying for others… then I sleep…

Isaiah 40… the war is over
…
My friend Lish… from one of my Christian social media platforms… wrote this song…
I think it’s beautiful…
give it a listen…
check out her YouTube channel…
SUBSCRIBE if you like and help support her…
she’s just getting started…
these are her words below 👇
…
Lish Victory
If you like discovering new Christian music, I wrote this song called Menuchah.
Menuchah is the Hebrew word for rest… tranquility… a resting place.
In Isaiah 40, God declares that the war is over.
He also shows the fragility of us… even the strongest struggle in this fallen world.
But because of Him… we can rest.
We can be strengthened.
I hope you like it…
the writing process was a breeze…
as if the Holy Spirit took the pen.

My Identity in Christ… ✝️
So I love reading…
as many of you do…
My one constant read—
is the Bible.
Then I usually have another book going at the same time…
but Scripture… that’s been with me almost 45 years now…
since I was a kid.
I love the theology of it…
the depth…
the layers…
Hermeneutics—
that’s really my thing with it.
Breaking it down…
understanding what it actually says…
not just what it sounds like.
Honestly though…
You can read and know things all day long—
but if you don’t apply what you’ve learned…
then what do you really have 🤷♂️
like… what did you gain…?
…
I’ve got other platforms where that’s all I do—
strictly Christian content…
just digging into Scripture… piece by piece…
But this blog—
This is different.
This is where I write about my life…
my past…
things I’m dealing with…
things I’m learning…
It’s an outlet.
A place where I don’t have to perform…
don’t have to impress anyone…
I just get to be me.
So… just because yall don’t see that other side of me much…
I figured I’d share a little of it here.
Some recent thoughts…
from my other platforms…
……………………………………………
📖 Romans 13:14
“But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh…”
📖 Galatians 3:27
“For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.”
I love these two…
Because that phrase—“put on”—
In the Greek… it’s ENDUO.
And it literally means…
To clothe yourself…
to wear…
like a garment.
So when Paul says “put on Christ”…
He’s not talking about casual belief.
He’s saying—
Wear Him…
Be covered in Him…
Let Him be what people see when they look at you…
Like putting on a coat—
except it’s identity…
not fabric…
Visible identity.
That’s powerful.
Super cool stuff 🙌 ✝️
……………………………………………
📖 Ephesians 2:10
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works…”
This one’s great…
That word “workmanship”—
In the Greek… it’s POIEMA.
Yeah…
Like we are God’s work… His Poem
Which means—
You’re not random…
not an accident…
not just out here trying to figure it all out…
You’re crafted.
Intentional
Spoken into existence with meaning…
Not mass produced—
handmade…
By God.
Prepared beforehand…
for something good…
So yeah—
You’re not just surviving this life…
You’re His poema.
And that’s a whole different way to see yourself… 🤷♂️✝️❤️🔥🙌
…
Thank you all for being here… seriously…
Yall are a blessing.
May God bless you…
and keep you…
always.

Fully Alive 🎶 All Around Me
Happy blessed Sunday yall…
I’m sticking with Flyleaf a little longer.
These next two — “Fully Alive” 🎶 “All Around Me” 🎶 — (acoustic versions)
are both from their debut self-titled album
Flyleaf (2005)…
and man… that record was something special.
Made fans out of a whole lot of people… me included.
Somewhere along the way I drifted from Lacey Sturm for a bit…
but about a year ago, I found my way back —
right around the time I started my YouTube channel “bryanforchrist.”
All I do over there is make Christian music shorts —
so if you’re ever bored one day… come check me out.
I’ve got a few Flyleaf ones up there too 🎶
And quick tip — on all my shorts, you can get to the full song:
tap the little thumbnail in the bottom right…
then when it redirects, go up top left and tap the larger thumbnail —
that’ll play the whole track.
It can look a little tricky at first… but once you see it, you got it.
Now as much as I love Flyleaf…
I’ve never actually performed any of their songs myself 🎤
That’s about to change.
I think this week… I’m gonna learn “Circle” 🎶
(from their second album Memento Mori — 2009)…
it’s probably my favorite from them… hard to choose though
So again… thank y’all for listening… for reading…
I appreciate you — and I’m always thinking of you 🙏
Have a blessed day…
