Should a believer watch “Game of Thrones?”
https://media.nbcnewyork.com/images/652*367/thronesbackx.jpg Warning: This is opinionated and contains discussion on some explicit topics. I've never personally been a big TV show guy. I don't really have the attention span to sit and watch things for long periods of time. This is precisely why I have several hobbies. It keeps me from getting bored. With that being … Continue reading Should a believer watch “Game of Thrones?”
Stop with the Bible Verses
I take a lot of pride in my Twitter page. I kind of care about my Instagram page, but I am a huge Twitter fan. I love the informational base that Twitter has, meaning, I would rather see what the world has to say rather than what the world looks like. As a future … Continue reading Stop with the Bible Verses

Nice People Go to Hell
I know what you're thinking--- what an aggressive title for a blog. The other day, I was sitting in class. The class is on the life and theology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

Just keep fishin’
I like to fish. I picked it up a couple years ago pretty seriously. It's something I really enjoy doing. It's very challenging and complex. I love things I can't figure out easily. Being outside, on the water, doing nothing but enjoying my solace is great. I really very thoroughly enjoy it. But, dang, I'll … Continue reading Just keep fishin’
Quotable
I really do like quotes. I've done a blog on quotes before. I really enjoy pithy, profound things to say. They resonate. Some of my favorite Bible verses are short ones. I really like certain sentences that just kind of stick! and stay on your mind. My little lady friend has a quote book, where she catalogs … Continue reading Quotable

Run the Sprints
I hate running sprints. I have always had the worst endurance ever. Running sprints have always kicked my tail. I would so much rather run a mile than 10 20-yard sprints. I would. Seriously. I'm just not a fan. But, my whole life, I have this weird 5 minutes after I run them where I … Continue reading Run the Sprints
