Our God is good. And He is always the same, forever and ever. he’s been faithful before and He will be faithful again. I’ve been filling out a lot of college paperwork lately, or rather, putting off filling out certain paperwork. ie: financial paperwork. The thought of having to mark the box that says I cannot, in fact pay for school on my own freaks me out. I grew up in a wealthy...

When you gave your life to Christ, He gave you a calling, not an option.

Dear Will,
My friend Becky and I walked into Starbucks to put up a fundraising flyer this evening. This girl waved at her, and so Becky went over to say hey. There were six or seven middle-school aged kids sitting around a table. On the table was a marked up Bible, belonging to this guy who appeared to be nineteen or so. He was teaching a Bible study to these kids in the middle of Starbucks on a Monday...

Being a camp-counselor at Crestridge or Kanuga D. Leading short-term missions trips in the culturally diverse district of Atlanta, GA. Option D is pulling at my heart right now! You...

Shallom
Consider what God has done: who can straighten what he has made crooked? (Ecclesiastes 7:13 NIV) We are made the way we are for a reason. We go through the things that we go through for a reason, even if we don’t know or are unable to see what that reason is at a given point in time. I believe with all that I am that God has a plan and a purpose for all things. For I know the plans I...
