From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come." I think it's time to Save The World!</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/marble-falls-tx/report/place/save-the-world-brewing-co-marble-falls-tx.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come." I think it's time to Save The World!

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace.

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."

From there I went to Austin to major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Then off to med school in Ft Worth. Next, I went to New Orleans for my internship and residency in Pediatrics. This is where I met the love of my life and future wife, Quynh. We dated for nearly 5 years until I wore her down and she agreed to marry me. We lived in the Dallas area working as physicians, me in Pediatrics and Quynh in Internal Medicine AND Pediatrics. We enjoyed life together with our friends, family, and church.We would yearly go on a mission trip, often to impoverished areas with limited medical care. I would then return to seeing patients in the US with their first world problems realizing that I wasn't really making much of a difference. If I stopped seeing patients, they would just see someone else and life would just go on and it was at this time I lost my passion and interest in the practice of medicine.It was about this same time that our mens pastor was talking about pursuing your passion and that God has created each one of us with certain skills, talents, and interests and you should use them to advance his kingdom. How do you meet the worlds greatest needs with your greatest passion? I thought seriously about how I liked to spend my free time, what I would read about, what I loved to talk about, what things would make me lose track of time because I was so enjoying the moment. The answer was making beer; and somehow God was going to use this?I'd been brewing for nearly 15 years and loved the science, experimentation, anticipation, and creativity that it involved. Now to get Quynhs involvement. Thankfully I have a wife that is a great combination of supportive and enthusiastic, so she loved the idea and began to add her own thoughts. Quynh had always wanted to retire and work at a nonprofit, so we thought why not make our brewery a nonprofit?Well, we began to realize a couple of things. One, a business cannot be a nonprofit. Strange, that if you make money and give it away you don't receive the same tax breaks that you do if you are given money and then you give a portion of that money away, I digress. Secondly, it seems there are already plenty of great nonprofits out there doing fantastic work and truly helping people in need, and the problem is not that there are not enough nonprofits out there but there just isn't enough money going to them. It's been said that the root of all evil is the love of money. So, how do you combat the love of money?You simply give it away. I know it's a crazy idea, but what if businesses gave all their proceeds to charity instead of stock holders or overpaid executives? I have a few ideas: poverty would be gone, starvation would be eliminated, curable diseases would be cured, and areas that have only known war would enjoy peace. I know it's a crazy idea, but as Victor Hugo said, "all the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come."
