Philadelphia- the city of Brotherly Love

This last Friday, I went to Philadelphia to spend some time with Matt and Andy. We had a great time talking, watching baseball, and playing basketball. At the Phillies game, this drunk guy started the wave. It went arround the stadium of 40,000 people at least 7 times. People are easily amused. Saturday morning, we… Read More »

On Tuesday I went to Lancaster, Saw Ruth

My dad had a business trip to do, so my mom and I followed him to Lancaster. We saw a Christian play: Ruth. The play was decent; pretty dramatic… although there was some creative license used. For example, they made Ruth come from a Moabite temple where she served. Despite this, the play helped to… Read More »

Staying Busy this Summer

On Friday, I finished up my first “jury duty” requirements. It was neat to see how the court system worked and serve Nassau County. The case involved a guy who forged documents to get $$ from the 9/11 victims fund. This weekend, I was in Washington DC, attending a conference on the media. The conference… Read More »

The topic is thoroughly practical. Message me somehow if you’d like a copy. I’m making a slide show of the Reformation… Read More »

Here’s a clip: The Reformers began by rejecting the medieval division of work into sacred and secular. To this they added the doctrine of vocation or calling, by which… Read More »

Dominion Mandate

I was mowing the lawn and trimming the bushes, doing my job to fulfill the dominion mandate of Genesis… Then I cut the power cord with the electric trimmer. I guess I’ll have to finish up the bushes another day. But I can go on and work on cleaning my room, doing my Reformation Report,… Read More »

Reformation Trip

I’m back! Europe was wonderful. I am grateful to God for the chance to go. The Swiss Alps declare the glory of God. What is man that he is mindful of us? Nothing in all creation can separate us from his love. We have so much to praise God for. He has been faithful to… Read More »

Fun Fun

So this Friday, my friends threw me a surprise party since I am graduating soon. (If i pass all my classes.) I was surprised at the turn out. I guess I’m loved. After that, we watched “The Village” at Susan’s house. I thought it was a pretty good movie. Its unique. I never saw a… Read More »
