Today at evening worship, Dr. Schultz reminded me to pray for things that are in accord with God’s will.

I enjoy being hospitable. I love it when some of my law school buddies sit around my house just to chat. At Grove City College, the local churches served as my family when my parents were far away. They fed me, encouraged me, and brought my mind back to the real world. My parents tell… Read More »
I often lose my patience when professors assign the silliest assignments from the casebook. How can a two credit class have more reading than the average three credit class? They make it more painful than they have to. I can learn just as much by reading half as much. Is it proper to feel frustruated… Read More »
