We all have shows or other forms of entertainment that we consider to be guilty pleasures.  Many of these are what people will consider “trash television.”  These are not meant to be taken seriously.  They are meant for pure entertainment, even some very unholy entertainment.   Some of my absolute favorites are Dance moms, theContinue reading “Our Guilty Pleasures:”

There was high energy in my Sunday school class last week.   The six kids that were there were ready to run.   They wanted to jump and play.  It did make sense as it was actually 30 some degrees as opposed to -30 windchill outside.  I too felt the effects of the “heat” andContinue reading “The Greatest Game of Hide and Seek:”

For my Bible Study, I have been reading a book about community.  This book is called, “Find your People,” by Jennie Allen.  She introduces the importance of community by introducing the research statistics of community and friendships as fundamental for health.  There has been a lot of research related to this topic.  Even though theContinue reading “The Importance of Community:”

I really love being a Sunday school preschool teacher.  I love getting to work with really young children for an hour a week.  It is definitely a change of pace from my usual of working with high school students.  However, I have definitely had a lot of learning when it comes to teaching a youngerContinue reading “Focus on the Cross:”

For those who know me, they know my favorite band is Switchfoot.  Switchfoot is a contemporary band.  Their songs talk a lot about love and hope, and it is very apparent that they are believers, but they are not necessarily singing worship songs.  I love their song lyrics.  Listening and trying to fully understand theContinue reading “All my Landlocked Dreams:”

At church, we have been going through the book of Genesis.  I will be completely honest to say that this was not a desire of mine.  I am not always the biggest fan of the book of Genesis as far as Bible Studies go.  Because of going through this book so many times, I believedContinue reading “It can be a Slow Process:”

I have just finished this book called, “Misquoted,” by Russell Muilenburg.  This book gave insight to phrases we often associate with the Bible and are often said by Christians, when they are not actually used in the Bible, or they are not used in the same context as is often used by the world.  Continue reading “Being Perceptive and Critical Thinkers:”

I have said it before, and I will say it again; I hate cleaning.  I have definitely grown better at cleaning as I have started to live on my own.  Not that I necessarily enjoy it, but I am now aware that I will not be able to pawn it off on someone else. IContinue reading “But besides that, It’s Clean!”

Another year has gone by, so therefore I have another reflection from this year of 2022.  Just like every year, there were incredibly high moments and low moments.  There were things that went incredibly well and some things that didn’t.  There were exciting times and there were things that I definitely learned.   If IContinue reading “Reflection of 2022:”

I have mentioned a couple of times that I teach Sunday school at church every week.  This is for preschoolers.  It is a bit of a change of pace because I teach high schoolers during the week.  It has been a really great experience, and I have learned a lot about how to be aContinue reading “Why would you Fight over that?”
