My job requires me to monitor the comings and goings of residents and visitors at the apartment building I work in. The building is actually two buildings on the same block, divided by an alley.

Posted in Uncategorized on October 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Amidst the million or so pages of reading I have to do each week, I’m learning some amazing things. The one that I find myself returning to recently is the ability to listen to myself. Seems a silly skill to acquire, I mean, don’t we all listen to ourselves more than anyone else? [...]

Last night was my first class with Dan Allender. I’ve been looking forward to this class for months, ever since I knew I was coming to Mars Hill Graduate School. No pressure, Dan. I knew from reading a few of his books, especially To Be Told, that he would put a great [...]

About 7 years ago I had them quite often. Very intense and soon became dibilitating. I ended up admitting [...]

Tonight I’m laying here on the couch watching “The Holiday” for probably the 20th time this year. I LOVE this movie. It’s become similar to my experience with “The Father of the Bride” years ago. It got to the point that I’d seen that movie so many times I could just put [...]
