I am Jared Latigo, a husband, father and Christ-follower, who's passion is doing things right, doing things intentional and growing every day. I believe that we were all put here for an incredible reason and that our passions are a gift that allow us to fulfill a particular life plan. Also a pretty avid fan of sandwiches.

Stand for what you believe in even if you’re standing alone.
I remember this was on practically ever wall in my elementary school. It was like they wanted us to stand up for our beliefs…but only to the extent they aligned with theirs.
And the older I get, the more I realize the need for us to be unapologetic for our beliefs. Not to the point that we are rude or disrespectful, but to the point that people know what we stand for and can trust that will never change.

I have always thought of doing something awesome. Something that would would change the world. That would help me make a mark and contribute to this society I live in.
For me, the lack of contribution to moving forward is ridiculous. Too many never attempt to fulfill their God-given purpose and/or don’t understand the impact they could have on this world. I am not one of those people. If you are, I don’t condemn you for it, I just hope you will see the potential you have been freely given.
This will be a series on why and how we can thrive in today’s world. It will cover everything from the current economy to social media to your unique set of gifts. No longer should we be dependent on others… Read More »THRIVE: Why are we doing?
Remember, if was easy, everyone would be doing it.
That’s the phrase I get from my workout buddy about every other day. He’s a worker. He says that people just want to work harder when he’s around.
And they do. Or at least I do.

Oftentimes we get caught up the heat of our lives, or lack of it, and we forget the true reason we were put here. Or maybe we don’t even know it yet.
I’ve had something laid on my heart recently that I wanted to get out there. It’s only been an idea but I now believe it’s been confirmed, so I wanted to share with you.
