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.
Well, I finally made it…almost!!! Just a couple more weeks. I don’t think that I was ever actually convinced that I would be at this point in my life. I am truly ready and excited. I wanted to this to be open invitation to anyone who would like to come and celebrate with me what [...]
I arrived at my first class this morning (Greek) feeling a bit unprepared, but the Lord saw me in my need. My Greek teacher is sick today, so we were dismissed from class. Although I am sorry that he is sick, I am thankful for the break. Things are slowing down a bit from last [...]
Throughout this year, the chapel speakers, for the most part (in my humble opinion) have been wonderful. Bible faculty, local pastors, and other well-qualified men have filled the BJU chapel pulpit and have proclaimed God’s Word. It has been refreshing.

I started this final semester a little behind. Last weekend I had the opportunity to go to a wedding in PA. My roomate from when I was a student at Northland Baptist Bible College was getting married. It had been a while since I had seen him and the others from Northland who were there, [...]

The day is near. Tomorrow I will be chcking into BJU for my final year. I know that God has much planned and will use this year tremendously in my life. I have had a good week. Last sunday my pastor preached a message from the first chapter of 1 Peter. It mainly focused on [...]
Before I say anything about my class tonight, I want to say first that I am so glad that this week and last week are over. I have been so busy. But I am sure that is true of everyone, so I will be quiet. Tonight, in my biology class we as students gave open [...]
Last night in my American Literature class, my teacher discussed the providence of God, the function of the church and the incarnation of the Gospel for the believer as taught in the writings of John Winthrop. It seems that my teacher, who I believe is not a Christian, has a better understanding and application of [...]
