I firmly believe the nerdiest nerdy thing a Jesus-loving nerd could say is I love seeing the biblical narrative play out in everything. Movies, TV shows, books, and anything you think is far from the bible is not nearly as far as you think. Doctor Strange, Frankenstein, Les Misérables, Harry Potter are a few forms … Continue reading “You will never be satisfied.”
16 Hours Without Food
That's my Sunday. That's been my Sunday for the last three to four weeks now, but that all depends on when I decide to actually make this post public. It has not always landed on a Sunday but I try to fast for sixteen hours, one of the days of the week. I usually stop … Continue reading 16 Hours Without Food
Don’t Proclaim “Jesus is King”
Now, now that we have a president and it was the one you voted for. Now that elections are over-ish. Now that we wait for the recounts, lawsuits, etc., now can I say "Jesus is King" or is that still considered insensitive, friends? I'm asking out of humility and genuine curiosity. I ask because I … Continue reading Don’t Proclaim “Jesus is King”
Following Commandments Have Never Been Easy.
"13 When all has been heard, the conclusion of the matter is this: fear God and keep his commands, because this is for all humanity. 14 For God will bring every act to judgment, including every hidden thing, whether good or evil." Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 Now, I know I started with a Bible verse, but my friend who does … Continue reading Following Commandments Have Never Been Easy.
“Do What Makes You hAPpY”
Maybe this is mostly because I am enamored with logic, truth and reason. Maybe this is because I have been accused of being emotionless. Maybe it's the combination but I thoroughly dislike the "you do you" or "do what makes you happy" movement. Movement...is that what you would call it? Lifestyle, maybe? Regardless, I absolutely … Continue reading “Do What Makes You hAPpY”
I Cried in Biology Class…
What? Yeah, you read that right. Actually? Unfortunately. Why? Well, let me back up real quick. Now, when I say crying, I don't want you to think about me in the fetal position, curled up in the bathroom corner with tears streaming and the inability to catch my breath. That's everything it wasn't. My eyes … Continue reading I Cried in Biology Class…
My Mornings Start at 3:45 AM
There's a certain amount of pride being able to say that I wake up before retired Navy SEAL, Jocko Willink. In all seriousness, I forget that this blog started as my life updates, but then I remember that my most viewed post so far is when I went to the emergency room. Yeah, that was, … Continue reading My Mornings Start at 3:45 AM
When it Comes to Politics…
Politics stress me out so much. With everything going on today, the pandemic, fairly claimed and unfairly claimed injustice, the election coming up, we are all in each other's business when it comes to these opinions. "State your beliefs but if we disagree, you're canceled" is dramatic, comedic and just agonizing at the same time … Continue reading When it Comes to Politics…
The World From a Christian’s Perspective
The Anthropic Principle is a fancy way of pointing to the extremely fine-tuned details of the universe and how it is able to exist. Now, admittedly, there are flaws within that argument, but I'll let you do that research. Regardless of your religion, let's just walk through this thought experiment. One hundred twenty two narrowly … Continue reading The World From a Christian’s Perspective
I Spent the Summer Working at an Amazon Warehouse
Is that too long of a title? I don't know, probably, but you did click on it so it must have caught your eye enough to some regard. Anyway, in the midst of the quarantine, I worked at one of the Amazon warehouses for a little less than three months and if any of your … Continue reading I Spent the Summer Working at an Amazon Warehouse
