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. In February 2009, I took a straight month dedicated strictly to Christian music, and now it’s become basically my life, […]

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. I had started to learn some of his songs during the summer, but it wasn’t until […]

Has God ever totally caught you off guard? Has He ever show you that there’s a much bigger picture?

The most shocking part, it was completely irrelevant to […]

I just finished watching “Where the Wild Things Are,” and to be honest, I loved it. Before watching it, my friends were telling me that it was a horrible movie with no plot. So I was not expecting the best when I started the movie, but afterwards, I felt I followed the storyline directly. All […]

Where to begin with 2010?

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 […]

Tonight, today, or should I say lately? I’ve been feeling this great desire to develop some good solid Christian friendships. Good, right? The thing is this desire has started to lead me away from friendships of the past (not bad friendships, definitely good ones, but not so godly). Well tonight, as I started thinking about […]

In order to understand my relationship with God, you gotta first and foremost understand the passage God continually brings me to. To give you the full context of the my favorite verse (Hosea 6:1), I’ll give you the chunk of passage. 5:14 For I will be like a lion to Ephraim   And like a young lion […]
