I’m Steve Chastain. Husband to an amazing woman named Shannon. Dad to four beautiful children – Caleb, Joseph, Zachary and Laurel. Youth minister in an American military community in the Netherlands. Follower of Jesus. Aspiring theologian. Purdue University graduate. (Electrical engineering?! Hard to believe; it seems so foreign to me now.) Former Naval aviator. Stark raving Scrabble lunatic, borderline obsessed. Relentlessly pessimistic yet doggedly faithful Pittsburgh Steelers fan. Cancer survivor. Apple user. Guitar hack. Recovering Evangelical? Wondering if I’m an emergent. The fact that putting a label on it bugs me suggests that perhaps I am. And now – a blogger.

So can you figure out my username? I just wanted to be the very first to post a comment… and my comment is… that you are the most sexy golem I’ve ever laid eyes on!
I’ll begrudge losing to you in scrabble, roll my eyes at you watching your steelers, and love the Lord alongside you, and follow you anywhere you emerge. I love you!
I admit that I am slightly offended when I see the word “sexy” in what was advertised to me as a “family friendly” blog. I thought this cyber-place was going to lead me on an adventure in words – but all I find is an electonic love note depository! : )
Steve, great postings! It is Saturday night and I have poked around for about an hour. You are a gifted writer and you have a beautful family.
