I’m always having conversations with people about having a job that you enjoy. When I tell people about my job, they always look at me and go…You have such a fun job. True…I do. I love my job. If you were to spend 5 minutes with me you would see that I love my job. [...]
About Spence Smith

Health Matters
Life is precious. We hear this all the time but do you really know how precious your life really is? Our bodies can take a lot. We can push ourselves to the limits and still live through it. We can hike to Mt. Everest and still survive. Our bodies are amazing. But then again, over [...]
Finding the One…
Some times people will play and play looking for the one only to realize they need to work on themselves a little more to get to a place they feel centered and balanced enough to learn how to find the one. For some this comes with practice and maturity…but once they find the one…they know [...]

Tom Jackson – Live Music Producer and Performance Coach
This past weekend I visited a conference in sacramento. I went to connect with a couple of people, but during my time there I sat in on one of Tom Jackson’s teaching sessions. Tom and I go way back to my days in Big Tent Revival. You see, Tom is a live music producer and [...]

My Triathlon Season Is Officially Over…For Now
Today was the last of 7 Tri’s I did this summer. In the middle Tennessee area, the season has come to a quick close. There are several more Tri’s around the country through out the year, but they are mostly in the warmer climates. This past season has been a lot of fun for me. [...]

Lance Armstrong Returns To Professional Cycling
This past week Lance Armstrong announced his return to the rolling saddle. He’s going to go for his 8th Tour de France. I’m extremely excited to see his return! He is one of the most incredible athletes of our time and his drive to find a cure for cancer has activated more people to action [...]

Who Are You?
Just like a finger print, we are all uniquely different, however sometimes we share some of the same characteristics, likes, dislikes, and struggles. Every once in a while I end up in conversation with someone who is trying to figure out the next step in life. It’s a frustrating struggle for those who feel lost [...]
Recovery Time
I’ve had a few weekends this past summer like the one I just had. Miles of running, miles of biking and somewhere in there a few thousand meters of swimming. I ended my weekend last night with my body ready to crash into bed and take a good rest. After a hard couple of days [...]
Burning Bridges…Not A Good Thing.
I’m out on the road today with this guy and this guy today. We’re up in Michigan for a show tonight. One of the things I love about coming on the road is hanging with the friends I’ve made over the years who work for guys like Michael W. Smith. They are quality guys. They [...]
Ironman Louisville August 30, 2009
This past weekend I did two major things. I signed up for my first marathon and my first Ironman. For those of you just joining the conversation, an Ironman is a brand of triathlon events where the distances are extremely long. 2.4 mile swim, 112 bike ride, and a 26.2 mile run. My ultimate triathlon [...]
Getting Through Loneliness
Ever feel lonely? Are you alone? Do you think your mind is paying tricks on you? Do you feel like you are the only one going through your struggles? If you do, then guess what? You’re not alone. There’s a few things that are honestly hard to write about when it comes to going through [...]

So You Want To Tri?
There are a lot of you who have been asking me lately how I got into doing triathlons so I thought I would share with you the little process I went through. In January of 2007 I came back from Africa with a little bit of a new perspective on life. Africa has that effect [...]
