ABOUT PETE

Pre-Order on Amazon, iTunes, and Barnes and Noble.
His first book Plan B released in April 2010 through Thomas Nelson Publishing.
Pete has been married to Brandi for 15 years and they have three wild boys - Jett (10), Gage (7), and Brewer (5).
Gosh, that’s a tough question. I really have no idea. How boring of me.
.-= Melissa Irwin´s last blog ..Zim – times 3 =-.
Not boring at all. You must be so content in your own identity that trading places with someone else doesn’t even come to mind!
Gosh, this is hard. For one day?
Maybe Shaun Groves…seems like he has the coolest jobS. Traveling the world, hanging out with kids, changing lives, meeting bloggers, and singing for a crowd of people.
.-= Lindsey Nobles´s last blog ..Ahhhh, Relaxation =-.
Billy Graham or Bono (pre-back surgery that is)
.-= Aaron´s last blog ..Fast Car and Man Cards =-.
I like both of those choices.
.-= pete wilson´s last blog ..For One Day =-.
Similar to your choice…Anderson Cooper.
.-= Kenyon´s last blog ..In The Beginning… =-.
I don’t have any big celebrity crushes, or chairs I would like to sit in, fun wise I want to be Oprah on her giveaway day, I love to surprise people with their “wishes” or one day in the shoes of Patsy Clairmont, she makes me laugh and laughter is good.
Tony Hawk
.-= Vince´s last blog ..This is how you present the gospel =-.
my dream is to host the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade…so really any of them. I also wouldn’t mind being Meryl Streep for a day either.
That would be fun (the parade no Meryl Streep).
.-= pete wilson´s last blog ..For One Day =-.
That’s easy. Dave Ramsey. Need I say more.
.-= Brian´s last blog ..I Resign – Daily Humor =-.
If you’re going for Matt Lauer, I’d have to say I’d trade with Meredith Viera the same day– I think it would be fun to cohost the Today Show with Pete Wilson!
.-= Eric Taylor´s last blog ..I haven’t done this in a while =-.
Let’s do it Eric.
Ronald McDonald
Make kids smile
.-= michael´s last blog ..April, I Love You =-.
Aren’t there easier ways to make kids smile other than dressing up like Ronald McDonald?
I’m sure there is, but I kinda want to dress up.
.-= michael´s last blog ..April, I Love You =-.
Jeff Probst or someone on his staff – I’d love to test out or create the games they make for Survivor.
Or I’d just BE on Survivor
That highly-blessed woman on the Travel Channel who visits spas all over the world and gets all the great treatments and massages. Oh yeah. I want THAT job for a day. And she’d be lucky if I gave it back…
What a fun question. I would be a music artist at a concert(Natalie Grant, Mercy Me). To be a part of the energy they create and the Glory they give God would be amazing. I know I can give glory to God anywhere but belting it out on a stage would be way cool.
If Jesus isn’t an available option, either Paul the apostle, or Wess Stafford.
easy.
I’d like to switch jobs with one of my heros …. Pete Wilson
.-= Michael Harrison´s last blog ..power of influence =-.
How about this Sunday? You in?
Again, easy. Rush Limbaugh. To control the conservative airwaves for one day. Awesome!
Please, don’t hate.
Easy – My Boss
Then I’d fire all the idiots that I work with and clean house.
Toby Mac
.-= Joseph´s last blog ..It Was Just $1 =-.
LOL–I don’t think I could walk two steps in someone else’s shoes, I can barely make it in my own! But if I could, it would be a singer (yeah, singing like ColdWater Jane ladies) and I’d love to find a little band somewhere passing the hat in a public place and sing with them and watch people enjoy it (now? in reality? Ha! I can’t even carry a tune in a bucket!)
.-= Tina Dee´s last blog ..Lil Tiger’s Vegetable Garden =-.
well, sometimes I would like to be the president- with no congress! But mostly I would like to be the person at Disney who goes around with the broom and dustpan all day.
Greg Mortenson (Three Cups of Tea guy) – although I don’t know if I’d want to be him for a day but I’d love to check out his schools and spend time with some of the students he has blessed!
Columnist in a secular paper to write on Christian issues going on. YES!!!!!!!
The question is… would he want to switch jobs with you ?
I’m going to say No but he would actually be really good at it I think.
Ooooh, I just saw a coldwater jane reference. i am honored
I saw that too!
What a great question to consider!
Hmm …I think I’d like to be Giada de Laurentis on the Food Network for day.
Great food, love the ocean view and someone else to clean up the mess; LOL.
.-= Debbie´s last blog ..Friday Photo Flashback =-.
The Edge, so I could rock out with Bono!
Nicole Richie or the Olsen Twins, b/c they are fashion designers and that is my ultimate goal!! Plus Nicole’s my style icon
Be honest, Pete, you want to trade places with Matt just so you can whip up some
crème brûlée with Giada a couple times a month.
(PS: this is a joke.)
Sawyer from LOST..cause he kissed Kate!!
Bono…need I say more!!
.-= Phil Chalos´s last blog ..Welcome to TrinityEnergy.com =-.
I think it would be a combination of 2 different people in my industry–one is this girl “Kelly Kelly Kelly” that is a phenomenal & highly creative radio producer. The other is a member of the Kidd Kradick in the Morning radio show–Kelly Rasberry. She is flawed in all the right ways and is such a classy, outspoken woman. I think a day as her would be a riot and truly a mind opening experience.
.-= Morgan´s last blog ..morgsmsquared: the mighty hunter has taken down Mini-Peanut the Giraffe http://twitpic.com/1vosrj =-.
the queen of soul, bono, or paul mccartney. or nelson mandela. way too difficult.
Hmmm. I’m thinking Jerry Jenkins. Would love to be a writer that has a bazillion books published.
I’d be happy to be a writer of one book that’s sold a bazillion copies.
Um…why do you want to be Matt Lauer?
I think I’d like to be Oprah for a day, just so I could tell everyone to stop worshipping me so much. Also, we wear the same size shoe, and I would grab me some high dollar footwear while I’m at the mansion.
.-= katdish´s last blog ..Painting blues =-.
I love his job. I think it would be awesome to host the Today show. Especially during the “where is Matt Laure” week.
JOYCE MEYER! I have so many questions for her.
I have questions for Joyce Meyer, too.
.-= mpt´s last blog ..Introducing: My favorite prodigal daughter! =-.
lol;)
.-= JuliaKate´s last blog ..interview with a covert conspirator… =-.
Beth Moore
Either of my sons…to be 5 or 3 again for just one day and be made to take a nap…
Nice!
Pete Wilson so I could have hair again
Ree Drummond aka The Pioneer Woman
.-= liz´s last blog ..secarden: RT @JosephWalker3 Happy Thursday. Read Psalm 119:11. Keep His word in your heart and He will keep your heart in His will. =-.
Beth Moore, she has come through hell and high water with a positive attitude and stronger faith in the Lord our God.
.-= Celena´s last blog ..Woohoo =-.
true that!
my son, Maximus Aslan (age 5)
“… such is the kingdom of God”
.-= Chilly´s last blog ..SWEET ‘psalm’ SIXTEEN =-.
Sara Groves. Her writing ability and opportunity to live out her God given purpose while still being a wife & mommy inspires me.
I’d like to sit opposite Regis Philbin and talk about funny stuff (so Kelly I guess is who I would be). If that wasn’t available I’d go with Meredith Viera. I wouldn’t mind hosting Oprah either.
.-= Darla Baerg´s last blog ..Darla Story – Dance Recital Edition =-.
Hmm…I never wanted to be someone else. That is abnormal isnt it?
Maybe in your world but not in mine. Would never want a different life than I have but for 1 day? Oh man that would be a blast.
Hmm… Watching the Today show now, and how fun would it be to watch you and Matt switch. As for me, Stephanie Abrams. She’s so funny, very weather smart and gets to work with Mike Bettes and Al Roker. (hmmm… maybe I watch too much weather channel. Nah, not possible.)
.-= Bekah´s last blog ..Who’s telling you No? =-.
For fun: J.K. Rowling…all of my Harry Potter questions would be answered or anyone in the David Crowder band (like how fun would that be!!!)
Serious: someone who is in great physical condition and eats healthy all of the time. For real. I struggle with a food addiction that cycles back and forth between eating junky foods to eating uber healthy w/too much focus on exercise/body image.
.-= Abby´s last blog ..Random Summer Questions… =-.
That’s a tough struggle Abby. Praying for you right now.
Thanks Pete. I really appreciate it.
.-= Abby´s last blog ..Random Summer Questions… =-.
Abby – she lives in my city. And she graduated with me. And my friend served her a soy latter in Starbucks the other week! I’d love to swap roles with her too. I’d love to write children’s books like her or Jacqueline Wilson!
.-= Laura Anne´s last blog ..Plan B =-.
Laura…thanks for sharing! How fun. She is a brilliant writer.
Since it IS World Cup season, David Beckham (even though he isn’t playing this time). Or Abby Wambach.
.-= Susan´s last blog ..Memorial Day =-.
One day and no more….Michelle Duggar, amazing mom to 19 wonderful children….I would love to learn from her. Her spirit is sweet, kind and humble. I would love to spend a day learning from her.
She is an amazing woman, for sure!
.-= Shelley´s last blog ..God Has A Plan =-.
You can switch for anyone for a day and you want to parent 19 kids????? What the heck is a matter with you Patti?
Bobby Flay or Giadda de Laurentiis (as if??)
Any paralympic swimmer, or Julie Taymor
.-= Sarah´s last blog ..3/4ths =-.
The weatherman…
You get paid no matter how many times you’re wrong!
And if you were on the Today show with Pete, you could get sent to vacation destinations!
D
.-= Morgan´s last blog ..morgsmsquared: RT @dawnreneetoday: Happiness is remembering that you are you right now. Cherish the moment. =-.
Let’s partner up Erik. We can start our own show bro.
mrs. obama. i would like to see how it feels like to be a woman of color/minority to be living in the white house.
.-= patricia´s last blog ..6.9.10 enchilada. =-.
not to mention the lovely clothes;)
.-= JuliaKate´s last blog ..interview with a covert conspirator… =-.
This isn’t so much as a switching of jobs with someone per say but I am making this one up myself. As much as I love to travel, if I could get paid to do it, I would be all up on that!!!
i’d love to do some monastic living for a day. so whoever is in charge… i want their job. preferably in the south of france and preferably during the spring;)
.-= JuliaKate´s last blog ..interview with a covert conspirator… =-.
Sounds delightful.
I think it would be Kathy Troccoli. I love her singing voice, I love her messages, and I love how God has molded her. Wonder how she’d like being me for a day?
.-= Melanie´s last blog ..Thankful Thursday =-.
I think it would be good for Matt to walk a day in your shoes!
Miguel Cabrera. Yeah, I’d like to have the pitcher shake, hit a bases-loaded homerun, and hear the crowd roar. I’m weird!
I’ve been in the studio Matt Lauer does the nightly news from – you ain’t missing anything Pete! Cross Point is way cooler.
Me? Hmmm. That’s hard. I guess, just for a day, I’d like to be the best me I can be.
The CEO of BP. (just kidding)
I’ll say Clapton.
I would want to be God. For just the day. And not to condemn or take out all the crazies. It would be a relief to be able love people perfectly, be grace-filled and forgiving. All things I currently fail at miserably.
Great question.
.-= Jessica´s last blog ..Lately I’ve Been Blue =-.
Bill Gates. Just long enough to set up the “Jason Wert Trust Fund” of a billion dollars. Then he can have his job back.
Now, if the money transfer wasn’t possible, I’d probably want to trade places with someone who heads up an organization fighting human trafficking.
.-= Jason´s last blog ..A great Norwegian export: Venke Knutson =-.
Kelly Ripa!
.-= ashleynashville3´s last blog ..Winnie =-.
I would want to be a student within my school so I experience exactly what it is like to be a kid in this technology driven generation. It would help me become a better educator/administrator.
Mike Hyatt from Thomas Nelson. I can only imagine how much I would learn…
I’d love to be a geography teacher for a day, or a children’s author (like I said above) or lead sung praise to God like VIcky Beeching or similar!
.-= Laura Anne´s last blog ..Plan B =-.
Steven Spielberg
Keith Urban! I want that gig!
.-= Michelle George´s last blog ..Candles and autopilot =-.
Easy… Dustin Pedroia
(strange answer from a Kiwi I know!)
.-= Paul Gardner´s last blog ..Is it Possible to Live Free from Sin? =-.
Hmmmm……I don’t know who this is but my musical fantasty has always been to sing background vocals for Mac Powell. I’m still waiting on my invitation so I guess I’d have my dream come true if I swapped jobs with them for a day.
.-= Jan Owen´s last blog ..Your Favorite Place =-.
Kay Warren would be my choice.
Tom Hanks.
Luke 6:38
Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

Darlene Zschech on Album Night. I would bust out of my (her?) skin for joy.
.-= Jen´s last blog ..ROOM 101 =-.
It seems like so many people want to be someone famous. I would want to be a neurosurgeon and perform risky operations and save people’s lives.
I would like to work at Pixar so one of those guys or play a super hero in a movie (my son would so dig that).
Hillary Clinton, I’d love to be Secretary of State for a day.
.-= Carole Turner´s last blog ..Funky town, last Sunday.. =-.
Nature Photographer is some really pretty place that I probably haven’t heard of!
…or the host of cash and treasures on the travel channel…love that channel, so fun! haha
Ryan Seacrest.
Flawless hair, perfect teeth. (Just Kidding)
A unique communicator whose venue is millions and whose network is packed with interesting people.
