Reflection on our Backyard Visitor
Last Thursday was cold and drizzly. I was enjoying a relaxing evening on the couch. When suddenly Durango jumped straight up from a dead sleep into full alert. He was inconsolable so I entertained his paranoia and opened the front door to look. My eyes scanned the darkness and nothing unusual stood out. Durango’s bay […]
Anticipation
Reading Deuteronomy I can feel the tension of this last stop on the journey to the promised land. The journey has been long and arduous a whole generation has passed away. The path has been circuitous and fraught with mistakes. God though has been ever present beckoning and leading forward. Not on a journey to […]
Bathroom Remodel – Done!!
In a brief two and a half years a lot can happen:
Experiential Education and Me
Years and years ago I like many of you was born into a world that overwhelmed my senses. Yet over time I learned to make sense of the various stimuli and how to respond to each one. Fast forward to childhood I grew up in a household dedicated to their relationship with Jesus. I heard […]

Quick Bathroom Update – Bathroom vs. Seminary
Tile is in and soon to be grouted. But the project is not done. This means Seminary won! Life lesson: Remodeling and Graduate school don’t mix.
Things found in a Youth Room

Light At the End of the Tunnel
The semester is going to end with a huge bang. Two papers and Two finals to prepare for this month. Then one more semester to go by the end of the summer it will be over (fingers crossed).
Merry Christmas
Looky here y’all a white Christmas! The white stuff makes my heart race. Durango enjoyed his first taste of the white stuff ill put up a picture later. Oh btw if you would like a different way to read the Christmas story try a medley Isaiah 40:3-8, John 1:1-5, 1:14-18. I am reminded this season […]
Saturation
I have learned a lot about saturation this last year. I have never lived on a steep hill until now. when the rain comes on a hill you think about it forcefully flowing down off the hill. Apparently when there is a lot of rain it happens under the ground as well and ends up […]
