The evening church service today was focusing on sanctification. I’ll probably write more about it later, too (I wish I’d had a pad of paper today…or at least something to jot a couple notes about ), but one thing he said really interested me.
The pastor was talking about the fact that we [...]

The sermon was over, the invitation had been given (with no response–same as the other 2 times I’d been at this church), the offering was collected, and all that remained was the final song–then I’d leave church once again, same as I went in. Up north, the churches I was at taught me something [...]

The school system has its issues, and sometimes their rules aid wrong behavior on the part of the students, but I know we can’t except any institution (yes, including homeschool ) to be perfect.

I’ve been looking at lots of colleges…way too many colleges. Anyway, the one that’s risen to the top of the pile, right now, is Spring Arbor University. (I still like Milligan College, my long-time favorite, but it looks like we’ve got a few too many theological differences )

It feels so good to be independent… OK, so I’ve never been independent of people, and never will be independent of God–but having some independence feels good.
