Zombieland Proverbs Part 2 – Rule #1 “Cardio”

I started this series based on Zombieland as a means of trying to get me to blog more consistently. For awhile, I was trapped in trying to make every entry profound. I figured that this would be a good way to keep it light but at the same time keep me blogging. Previous entry in [...]

Zombieland Proverbs Part 1  – Rule #32 “Enjoy The Little Things”

This is probably not the most edifying movie to watch but I have to admit that I did watch it and I did enjoy it. I probably won’t be recommending this movie to everyone, but it was definitely one of the funnier comedies I’ve seen in awhile. The movie follows a young man nicknamed “Columbus” [...]

The Illusion of Control and Freedom

I watched “Instinct” this weekend. Apart from having an amazing cast of actors, the  movies had some great dialog. There is a scene in the movie that has become the inspiration of this entry: In a dramatic fashion, Dr. Ethan Powell (Anthony Hopkins) helps the young Dr. Theo Caulder (Cuba Gooding Jr.) realize that as [...]

So for one of my classes I had to take a personality test called 16PF. Apparently this test is the most accurate test and it cost mucho $$$ to take (which is part of my tuition apparently). The point of taking the test is to help me understand who I am and how I function. [...]

The Broken Heart – Valley Vision Pg. 150-151

O Lord, No day of my life has passed that has not proved me guilty in they sight. Prayers have been uttered from a prayerless heart; Praise has been often praiseless sound; My best services are filthy rags. Blessed Jesus, let me find a covert in thy appeasing wounds. Though my sins rise to heaven [...]

I Am Worth It

This is probably going to be one of the hardest entries I’ve written because the emotions are still very raw. I really haven’t written anything on this blog for awhile because I feel like God’ s been taking me on a journey and each time I sit down to write, this journey is all that [...]

So my little brother proposed to his girlfriend of 10+ years. It’s a bittersweet moment. Sweet because it’s my family and I’m happy for them. Bitter because that means I’m the last man standing. For those of you who don’t know, I have two younger brothers and one older sister. My older sister is married [...]

Baggage that Prevents

For one of my classes I’ve been reading Calvin’s Institutes. I’m reading the chapters on predestination and it’s interesting on how Calvin started his discussion on predestination. He doesn’t start by addressing the topic, he starts by addressing the attitude and the hearts of people that prevent them from teaching it or that cause them [...]

Do You Lie When You Worship?!

I had a conversation with one of the guys in my youth group. He’s attempting to write some songs for worship. I’m really proud of his boldness and his initiative in wanting to bring something new to the table. Most people his age are wrapped up trying to write songs about girls so that they [...]

These are a few of my favorite things

I’ve been so busy with school and ministry that it feels like I’m not really human. It sort of feels like I’ve just been a robot who goes about my daily routine. To be completely honest, I started to feel like I was in a Cymbalta commercial for awhile: So in order to shake this [...]
