This summer, my big project was to determine a strategy for adopting and engaging an unreached people group. I’ve done some research, and this morning, I was able to talk to a pastor in South Carolina who has been through the process before. Pastor Brad and his church of less than 250 adopted a people [...]

Last Saturday, I returned to the states from a 3 week trip to India. While there, we did all kinds of work with house churches, school, and villages. I went with a group from OBU, with 4 other students and 2 adult sponsors. Only one member from our team had been to India before, so [...]

This past weekend I attended a Christian conference for college students in Ft. Worth, Texas. It was unlike anything I have been apart of before. With 10,500 other college students I saw a generation, united for God’s glory. The speakers, Louie Giglio, Francis Chan, and John Piper, were great and challenging. The worship lead by [...]

As a Christian college student in today’s society one thing is clear, you will stand out. Following Christ looks something like walking up an escalator that is going down… everyone is going to stare, some people will yell at you, you will be noticed. For some reason, many Christians in the United States believe [...]

There is a problem with Christianity in the United States today. I am not saying that I am the first to recognize it, but I am saying that it is something that needs to be addressed. Let’s look at some statistics from the Wall Street Journal and USA Today. These are based on the Christians [...]

I would like to think that everyone has been to a cemetery at least once. I know for me, there is one that I will remember for the rest of my life. Motherwell Cemetery is located across the street from the Motherwell township in Port Elizabeth. Let me take you to this place so you [...]

I don’t know if you realize it, but the houses we live in are ridiculously large. Remember those townships I was describing in the first post? Well, it was worse than I thought, worse than I had imagined. I remember walking into the township, and I know I had to hide my look of disgust. [...]
