When You’re a Future Pastor

So, I'm doing an internship this semester. At the church I go here at school--- Bellview Baptist Church--- I have built a pretty solid relationship with the pastor, Adam. So, this semester, I wanted some extra work and skills. Therefore, here I am--- the Intern. I absolutely love it. It's been a great experience thus … Continue reading When You’re a Future Pastor →

That’s a Win

I experienced Christ in class today. I am taking a class called "The History of Christianity." It's a class about... well... the history of Christianity. We are basically tracking the historical progression from the Book of Acts to today. It's going to be really cool. I'm very excited. But something truly awesome happened in there … Continue reading That’s a Win →

Merry 2019

I don't like New Year's Resolutions. They are cliche. I think they have the potential to always be kind of fake and ambiguous. "I'm going to get healthier." Well, how? "I'm going to read more books." Which ones? We have the human tendency to set goals that are big, so they seem great, but they … Continue reading Merry 2019 →

Destined for Greatness

Have I ever mentioned that I love Christian rap music? Well, I do. It's one of my all-time favorite things. This past week, Ty Brasel's Destined for Greatness (side B) came out. To explain, the album came out in the spring. However, he only released half of the album. The other half came out the other day. … Continue reading Destined for Greatness →

Don’t throw it so hard

I went and played disc golf yesterday with my buddy Will Roberts. For one, it was pretty cold. But it was that kind of annoying cold where, in the sun with no wind, it was comfortably warm. In the shade or with wind, it felt as if we were trapped in a meat locker. Nevertheless, … Continue reading Don’t throw it so hard →

Pseudo-Banquet

Well, my sophomore season is officially over. There were some ups and downs-- more of the latter than the former. We had some things go our way, and we had some things not really go our way. It was an interesting experience this year because we are battling an administrative decision that is changing the … Continue reading Pseudo-Banquet →

Goggles

I had to get glasses. I have a very small prescription, so I don't "need" them. I was having some complications with using the computer and reading for long periods of time. My eyes were straining to do those things. So, I am now officially a part of the "4 eyes" family--- which is kind … Continue reading Goggles →

Jesus likes Rap Music

I've almost undoubtedly got a few people reading this because of the title. That was the goal, actually. Jesus likes rap music. I have proven it. Some of you are thinking, "I can't stand rap music... I can't understand what they're saying... all it talks about is drugs and sex,"--- not my kind of rap music. … Continue reading Jesus likes Rap Music →

Snap the Ball

I officially tarnished my perfect stats. Last season, I got placed on the field goal team as the long snapper for field goals (if you don't know what long snapping is, click here). That's what I do. I snap a ball, with two hands, seven yards to the field goal holder. Easy money. It's pretty … Continue reading Snap the Ball →

Own the Nails

No one likes a bandwagon fan. I started pulling for the Oregon Ducks when I was, eh, about 7 or so. They were only a little good. Chip Kelly was new as the OC, and then they started really balling. Oregon quickly became a team to talk about again. They were scoring points left and right. About … Continue reading Own the Nails →
