This past summer, I served as the Assistant Day Camp Director (not Assistant to the Day Camp Director) at Forest Glen Christian Camp. Having gone there since I was eight years old, this was a wonderful experience for me, first
Verses

Motivational Babies #1

Epic T-Shirt
I put together two designs for a T-Shirt for CBC’s Jr High Guy Spring retreat- Epic.

Thesis
I am almost finished with my thesis on the Pevensie children and the virtues. I still have more work to do on it, but I’m almost there. And this sums up my entire Fall. Sigh.
Facebook Ad Parodies
I made these in the Spring of 2009. Some of them are forced, but some of them were just asking for it. “With good parody, you have to be smarter that the people you’re parodying.” — Craig Ferguson “You can
The Kingdom
“Long, long ago, the Emperor of the Far Away Lands sailed through the Strait of Nobility, across the Sea of Virtue, and landed on the shores of an uncharted land. He placed the Venerable Charles Schultz in charge of this
Eustache
I misspelled Eustace as I wrote my thesis, and found it to be quite humorous.
Recent Discoveries
There have been a number of films at the back of my brain, constantly chewing on my grey matter and making me wonder, “What was that?” In one successful evening, I have now located three of these productions.
Justice Week Promo

Joseph
This is a pre-summary (summary of the work before the work is finished– kind of like an outline, but more fun) of what I will be speaking on for the Middle School students at Cypress Bible Church this Sunday morning.
Medallion

Eyeing Things Up
It’s so much fun to imagine “What if inanimate objects weren’t inanimate?” We’ve tried this in movies, such as Toy Story and The Brave Little Toaster and even in Transformers (I love when the AllSpark brings the cell phone and the
Rabbit Room Mug
This is my favorite mug. I got it at the Hutchmoot this year, after years of wanting one. It is so hearty and elegant, with such crafty character. It is handmade and, though not right now, surely in the future,
The King’s Speech
A man has trouble talking. Really. That’s it. That is the problem of the movie. In a time of coming war and political issues, this is the central topic of The King’s Speech. And thank God. We need the personal. (Or

Strengths
When you arrive at Baylor as a freshman, there is (among others) a certain requirement: You are to take the Clifton StrengthsFinder test. They do this to help prepare students to thinking about their calling, to help them meet other
