Hi, I'm Chris White. I am a writer and entrepreneur. In the course of starting up, running, and catastrophically crashing my small business I discovered who I am and who I want to be. I discovered a new honesty which you will see throughout my writing here and on Facebook.

I have also written a new autobiography entitled "failure" (available soon under my links to the right). The manuscript has proven to be volatile, so the publisher requested that I use a pen name and fictionalize parts of it, both of which I have done. Following is a description:

Failure. It teaches us, forms us, shapes us, destroys us, and, ultimately, leads us to success, but not the success we think we need and so often crave. As we grow and fail we find that the path to our true identity leads directly through the end of ourselves. Will we be brave enough to follow? Jade Edward Nash tells his tale, an intensely personal one, of failure. Reminiscent of "Blue Like Jazz" and "Me, Myself, and Bob", it is a journey into the depths of what forces have the power to make a man, break a man, and remake a man.

I am a contented husband and father of two boys, I have earned my BS in Business/e-Business from the University of Phoenix, I served four years in the US Marines, and I am finally embracing life. I hope you can join me here on Helium, on Facebook, and on my book Web site and that we can share part of the journey together. Drop me a line by email.

Where are the worshipers?

Sing a new song. Fail until you succeed. These are the two things I heard God saying to me today, and I place them here because I do not want this note to sound contrived. I'd rather be real than any other thing.

As I have soaked in one of the aftermaths with which God is forming me, I have wanted to write out what I have been feeling about worship. As one of the banners under which I used to gather within the confines of the organized church, it is a kind of touchstone for authenticity for me. It is also, however, what I believe to be a hotly debated subj...
