Throughout the last month, it seems that every morning I wake up or every afternoon I come home from work, I am mourning yet another death in the house. There is a killer in my house, and the worst part about this killer isn’t even that deaths are occurring. The worst part is that the … Continue reading Invisible Killer

Thought Spirals
I recently read one of the best descriptions of what I experience inside my mind that I have never really been able to put into words. The credit for that description goes to one of my favorite authors of fiction, John Green. If you haven’t read anything by him, you should because it is worth … Continue reading Thought Spirals
Endurance for What is to Come
The summer I became a Christian, in 2004, life was made new to me through my new hope and understanding of the world through Jesus. I spent that summer on the beach with hundreds of other Christians learning about our walks with God. Everything I had brought to that summer, my life baggage, issues, and … Continue reading Endurance for What is to Come
Welcome Back
Welcome back. A twofold statement; 1) because I am back in America and 2) because I have not written a blog in over a month. Partly because hours of leisure and writing are minimal when working with volunteer mission teams, and mostly because once we were finished with our teams for the summer I sort … Continue reading Welcome Back
Confess Your Sin Part 2
“If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a … Continue reading Confess Your Sin Part 2
Why I Love Volunteer Missions Teams
In 2004 I discovered Jesus. I discovered that Jesus was everything I had been desiring; I discovered that He met my every need. That truth has not changed, I just have to often remind myself of His sufficiency. That same summer of 2004, I prayed for a team of students who were spreading the gospel … Continue reading Why I Love Volunteer Missions Teams
Confess Your Sin
First world luxury. Some of us have a lot of it, and can’t live without it. Some of us have never seen it. (which would be no one reading this) Some of us think we can live without it until they are rudely awakened by the reality of not having it. That would be me. … Continue reading Confess Your Sin
Experience, Proclaim, Rejoice
I really like the book of 1 John. Specifically chapter 4. It’s just really good stuff. I mean the whole bible is really good stuff, but today I want to highlight 1 John, because it was first highlighted to me. As you will see, I am following a trend. Even though I am … Continue reading Experience, Proclaim, Rejoice
Days that make you go whew.
What. A. Day. Today we hopped a train up to Florence. We unexpectedly took a short tour of Florence, which included the Duomo and Ponte Vecchio, all to arrive at church 20 minutes later than we could have. It was a nice walk, no one complained, the kids got ice cream, and we still made … Continue reading Days that make you go whew.
Acts of Italians
So at this point it might be important to mention where I am. Most likely, the only people reading my blog are people that know me personally. I mean, you could all be sharing my blog with other people you know that do not know me, which would be nice, but if you aren’t that’s … Continue reading Acts of Italians
