Pictures from my Sabbath over the long weekend

Wednesday, October 11th, 2006

In the next week, I have three projects due, a test, a testing plan (think paper), and a quiz on top of my regular homework.  I won’t be updating this week, so I figured I’d make a quick post and share some pictures from this past weekend and my Sabbath.    

Update to podcasts index

Wednesday, October 11th, 2006

A little while ago when I made a list of podcasts I listen to, I had two podcasts on my wish list.  Well, it seems that John McGowan has pulled together a podcast of his Gathering messages.  The first one is up now, but I haven’t had the opportunity to check it out yet.  This […]

Podcasts I keep up with

Friday, September 29th, 2006

Before I jump into the podcasts I listen to, I’m going to describe how I use podcasts. First, my podcasts currently fall into two categories: things that I want to learn about and things that help me escape. Essentially, you could call these categories “educational” and “just for fun.” An interesting note is that currently […]

Free Cold Stone tonight 5-8pm

Thursday, September 28th, 2006

Free ice cream tonight at Cold Stone from 5-8pm. It looks like they’re only giving away one type of ice cream, but it’s still free ice cream. Plus, donations go to Make a Wish. Link

Paid $1.92 for gas today

Thursday, September 28th, 2006

I had my extra discount from buying groceries and gas at Kroger, but with my normal discount, it still would have been $1.99.  First gas that I’ve bought for under $2 since before Katrina.  Hopefully, the downward trend will continue.

Coming attractions

Tuesday, September 26th, 2006

This semester is shaping up to be my busiest yet, but I’m working on a series of posts. The primary intent of these posts is going to be to help equip other college ministry leaders with some of the resources that I’ve found particularly helpful in personally preparing me to do ministry and also resources […]

Busy, busy, busy!

Tuesday, September 19th, 2006

It’s been a whirlwind of a past few weeks.  I have two projects and a quiz due on Monday, plus a vtONE worship event Saturday night.  I’m excited, but busy, so don’t expect to hear much from me for the next week. On a completely different note, what’s up with taking away even more spaces […]

Quarry

Sunday, August 27th, 2006

Yesterday, I went to an old quarry near Blacksburg.  Beautiful site, and lots of fun jumping from 10′ and 40′ cliffs.  But remember, keep your arms in and your legs together.  I did neither, and can still feel it.

First class and escaped prisoner

Monday, August 21st, 2006

UPDATE 4PM: suspect was captured near the rugby field behind the south main Kroger.  Now let’s see if I can get home.  I’ve been gone since 8:30AM with little to do. UPDATE 12:45PM: another sighting on campus. Neighborhood on lockdown. Looks like I’ll be spending the day in Christiansburg. Story is the top story on […]
