Lately, it seems God is really showing me the value of His Kingdom, that my focus needs to be on the Kingdom. I will admit that this school year has not be the best. With its ups and downs, it’s felt sufficient, but hasn’t been the “blast” that I was expecting. Friends from last year […]

Over Martin Luther King Jr. weekend, a few friends and I made the trek over to Tempe, Arizona where a friend’s aunt lives. With a long weekend, it would be fun to just get out of San Diego and see something different. Some may think it’s crazy that we went from San Diego to Arizona […]

Tonight, I was searching through some old Christian music I used to listen to, some of the core music I rested my faith on my senior year of high school when things weren’t the best.

As part of my New Year’s resolution, I’ve been picking up my guitar a little bit more. One of my favorite acoustic artists is Jon Foreman, lead singer from Switchfoot; but I absolutely love his individual material. It’s beautiful.

This year has been one year where God has been showing me His faithfulness.. sometimes immediately, sometimes months later. 2010 began in the middle of my freshman year of college, when I was still trying to “find my place.” Although I didn’t get all or any of the answers I […]

Today, my adaptability strength definitely showed up.Adaptablility You live in the moment. You don’t see the future as a fixed destination. Instead, you see it as a […]

When you decided to go to Point Loma Nazarene University, they have you take this survey called StrengthsQuest, and they take it quite seriously. It’s these series of questions like the Meyers-Briggs but slightly different. The point is to find these 5 strengths out of 34 which best describe you, and I would say that […]

One of my favorite and most life-changing things I learned this last semester in Old Testament and New Testament was the story of the Bible as a whole. The Bible contains the story of Israel (God’s People) and their relationship to God. In order to fully comprehend the Bible, these stories must be understood. Before […]
