Perhaps some of you wonder why I feel the need to write an entire series on this topic… Well, one of the first conclusions I came to during my studies is that the subject of nonresistance is, in fact, very complicated. And perhaps that is where we first fail in understanding it. We’re all familiar …

The ‘N’ topic of Anabaptism.
“Greetings and salutations, one and all!” Judging from the fact I finally published Part 2 on Mental Health last week, yes, I am back. Hopefully for good this time? I guess we’ll see. 😀 Upon my arrival home after Christmas break, I was finally cleared by our on-campus concussion specialist (should I be worried there …
Mental Battle, Part 2
“You can handle depression in much the same way you handle a tiger… if depression is creeping up and must be faced, learn something about the nature of the beast. You may escape without a mauling.” ~R.W. Shepherd I absolutely love the above quote, because it offers hope to the field of mental health in …
I’m Not Dead – Yet
Hey guys. It’s been a while. Sorry. I never intended to be one of those bloggers who randomly drops off the face of the earth and leaves the readers wondering shall I unsubscribe? is this blog dead forever or will it resurrect? (Is it worth it? Shall I stay?) Long story short, life happened – …
Mental Battle – the little me
I pulled at my hair and beat my head with my fists. “Stop it! Shut up!!” I yelled at myself. Boy, if anyone saw me now, they would think I’m crazy. Ha! You ARE crazy! You’re a crazy weirdo and that’s why everybody loves your sister –she’s nice. And normal. You’re just weird and that’s why nobody …
The Moses Call
I’m still shaky. I can still feel the anxiety inside. But today, I faced a Moses moment, and this time I won. It all started this morning in Convo… The boy next to me stood up. So we rose around him in support. And as we laid our hands upon him in prayer and love, …
“United We Stand”
I really liked the sermon today. — Amazingly, because lately it seems that most of our sermons are so full of child-training and themes of raising families that for my stage in life I get a little tired of it and wish for more applicable content. 😛 — Also, I liked that it was so …
The Power of Life versus Death
I believe you. Three very simple words, but they changed my life forever. Let me explain. There are two connected incidents of my life that stand out so clearly I’m sure I’ll never forget: this being one of them… I had written a paper for my Discovering God class at SMBI, and those 3 little …
Guns, Fires, and True Love
I went camping for the first time last weekend. It ended up being way more fun than expected – perhaps vastly owing to the fact I got to shoot a big gun. But that’s beside the point. 😉 Probably the best part of the entire weekend was the stimulating conversation around the campfire. One of …
03/12/19 – Burning Coals
I’m getting real tonight. So for anyone who likes the pretty faces, now is your time to exit stage left. Gonna be real honest with you guys: I really hate “clean” swearing by Christians. Cause I know what you’re really saying. You say crap when you’re thinking shit. You say gosh or oh my …
