August.31.2007 - My most recent attempt at a photo album is now available here on jtower.com. This one ties into Picasa's web albums so that it will be easier for Brooke and I to keep them updated.

I also added a currently reading feature that ties into my new goodreads account. Let me know what you think.

I was born and raised on the west side of Michigan's lower penninsula. I went out of state to a private college called Taylor University where I acquired a BS in computer science, a bunch of life-long friends, and a beautiful, loving wife.

My wife and I lived in the Chicago suburbs for 7 years where I worked as a software developer and computer consultant. After the birth of our first child, we decided to move back to west Michigan for a slower pace of life, to be near my family, and to attend a church called Mars Hill.

We feel very blessed to have two beautiful children, our own home, and to be part of a church that actually believes in "joining God in the restoration of all things by completely giving ourselves to a revolution of love."
