this is just a glimpse of God's grace at work in my life. i pray that it will be an encouragement to others on the journey.
I can’t believe it. I am down to the final semester in my undergraduate education. I really never thought that I would catch that glimpse of light from the end of this tunnel. I am so thankful to God for His grace and powerful hand. He has taught me so much through my educational experience; [...]
I had a teacher say last week that he thought that Thanksgiving was truly the most Christian holiday. Although I am not sure that I would go so far as to say that myself, I definitely see where he is coming from. It is true that on many other holidays, myths and ritualism have become [...]
Tomorrow is one of those days of the year which Christians share missed feelings – and understandably so. No matter what the history is behind it, Halloween is a day when the majority of the collective people of the United States (and possibly other nations of the world, but I am not sure) celebrate who [...]
When I originally started this website and blog I had hopes of using it as a tool of encouragement to friends and family. I frequently come across people whom I have not seen for a while who ask me how I am doing. It was my desire to use this blog to keep them posted [...]
For some reason I have either seen signs, t-shirts, etc. or heard this topic addressed multiple times over the last few weeks.

It is Friday and I am still alive. It actually was not that bad of a week. I did well on all my quizes, however I failed a Greek test. By God’s grace I will be able to maintain a acceptable grade in the class. It is somewhat difficult returning to Greek after sitting out [...]
The summer has come, and I am afraid that it is going just as fast. I didn’t have too many expectations of the summer before it came, except that I would be working and preparing to go back to school in the fall. (For those who don’t know, I work for an electrician, and we [...]
Well, I can’t believe it! Another year has passed and I am definitely feeling older physically, yet spiritually and mentally, I feel as if I am a young child and getting younger. The more I think I see of reality, the more I realize I don’t know or understand. But I find comfort in the [...]
On June 29, 1978, the man who I now know as my dad, went from being a newly married man of almost a year, to being a father. Unfortunately, for him, that experience started with me. His life would never be the same again. Fortunately, for me, my experince as a son started with him. [...]
