About

Hi, I’m David Reid! Welcome to Renew U, where I want to inspire and encourage you to passionately pursue your God-given potential.

Life is a gift. It’s precious.  It’s also short.  We aren’t promised tomorrow.  In fact, you and I both have a finite amount of minutes, moments, health, and energy to do whatever it is we were put on earth for.

I whole-heartedly believe the God of the Bible put you and me here for a purpose.  You are not here by accident.  The all-knowing, all-powerful, all-present Divine King of the Universe decided you should exist and that your story would be a unique and meaningful part of His Story (history is His Story, see what I did there?)

The Bible has a great concept that I love.  It’s the word “renewal” found in Romans 12:1-2:

“Don’t be conformed to the pattern of this world,

but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”

We’ll unpack this verse more as we go along, but basically I write, talk and want to build community with you around this idea of renewal, in all areas of your life, so that you can passionately pursue your God-given potential.

I’m passionate to write, talk, tweet, and text with you about a lot of things.  Here are a few:

Depression (Been there and have the t-shirt, If I can Help you avoid it, I will!)
