To Know and Be Known
108 Days of Summer
I was blessed with 108 (give or take) fantastic, terrific, fantasterrific days of summer. For about 75% of the summer, I did a decent job of giving regular status updates what I was doing, who I was seeing, where
Honest Ramblings #4

Kids React Infographic
I am a huge fan of TheFineBros and all of their creative works, especially their React shows and especially Kids React! I wanted to share some fun tidbits of information about the Fine Brothers and their fantastic show and thought
Honest Rambles #3
I know that I am just complaining, venting, you could say whining. I’ve typed and retyped these first couple of sentences because I don’t even feel like writing them. Anything I verbalize doesn’t sound right. I feel like I really
Honest Rambles #2
It’s been a hard week… All I want to do is hide away from everything. I stay up late watching TV and sleep in. Then when I wake up, I keep all of the lights off. It’s more calming to
Honest Rambles #1
I don’t have much to say anymore. And still I have so much to say. I wish I could have some inspiring blog post or creative writing piece, but today (and for a while) I’m just gonna go with some

To Feel the Sorrow and Joy of Easter
Sometimes I’m just numb to it all. You know what I mean? I remember the death of Christ on Good Friday. I mourn with fellow believers around the world, on this, the darkest day in history. And yet I don’t
Simple Worship Elements
A while back, I served as the Summer Intern at Cypress Bible Church. Part of my work there that summer was to develop a worship experience during our summer Beach Week. During the worship times, led by the impeccable Tom

Life Means So Much: Remembering Daniel Jones
This past Saturday morning, I woke up to the news that my friend Daniel Jones had died. I typically sit in bed and check Facebook and email for a little while on a Saturday morning, but when I read my
Team StarKid
Well after a fun trip into Chicago with my sister to see the fantastic Team StarKid in their production/comedy show, “Airport for Birds,” I realized something: Some of you may not know about Team StarKid! I’m so sorry I haven’t
Where Mercies Rest- Demo
I recorded a song! Well, I have recorded plenty of songs, but I finally played and recorded the whole thing and posted it up on SoundCloud. Now it is nowhere near where I’d like it to be, definitely a poor
Epic 4 Video
So last year at the Cypress Bible Church Junior High Guy Retreat (or Event), rightly called EPIC (which I have enjoyed attending for three years) on the last day out at Forest Glen at breakfast, I started filming a promo
Balance In Between
If you know me well, you will know that there’s a word, a key element of life, that I uphold and value and pursue (or at least attempt to pursue) in all my pursuits: balance. Now I’m no dancer nor
To You
I wrote this piece back in high school, and it’s located over in the Archives of my earlier writings. I still find it rather profound and feel it is just as relevant as it was five years ago. In many

There is a lot of new technology coming out– so much, in fact, it’s hard to stay on top of it all. Here are just a few that have tickled my fancy. 1. Little Printer http://bergcloud.com/littleprinter/ First, watch this little
A Blank Journal
I love a blank journal. Especially if it comes from Paperblanks… Seriously, if you ever want to buy me a birthday or Christmas or Arbor Day present, get me a Paperblanks journal, please. Like this, or this, or this, or
A Very Potter Senior Year
This was finally released to the Internet on Friday, March 15th! I am proud to have been among the first 300 people to watch the show, alongside my sister, a fellow Star Kid fan. If you haven’t yet seen A
Broken
You must remember. I must remember. The reason we all need grace, from God, from others, from ourselves, is because we are all broken. I’m just a well dressed wreck / I’m just a made up mess Working hard trying to
Goals Devotion
A while back, I wrote this devotion for our summer staff at Forest Glen Christian Camp. It’s rather informal, but I feel it’s also rather informative and makes you think about the importance of goals. I do find it interesting
