This is my friend Matt.  Matt and I met on a tour when he was working with David Crowder and I was working with Third Day.  Matt was usually running around working a lot harder than I was, and seemed to never get much credit.  That made me appreciate Matt.

What’s funny and sad about tours is that it’s likely that you won’t ever tour with those people again.  Imagine living with someone for three months, but not only living with them but traveling the country with them, eating with them, working with them, and even sleeping within feet of them.  Imagine that and then at the end of that three months saying, “see ya around” and that’s it.  It’s a weird way to have friends.

Matt is now working up at Rob Bell’s church and is in charge of all sorts of things.  I don’t really know what he does, but I know people answer to him because he’s kinda big and scary.  What’s awesome about Matt is that I can literally count on hearing from him at least once a week, and any time Apple comes out with something new.  A few weeks back Kristin and I we able to go to Matt’s wedding and have an amazing time getting away and hanging out.  I love the fact that even though we were only on one tour together and even hung out sporadically on that tour Matt and I are still able to remain friends and stay in contact.  Thanks Matt.

Any of you have friends you don’t see much but stay in contact with regularly?
