The basement renovations are well under way at First Trinity. At the end of last week I peeked in down there and was amazed at all that has taken place. Partitions were taken down. The ceiling removed. Construction workers spent an entire day demo-ing 3 steps into the old storage room/soon-to-be prayer chapel. A whole… Continue reading Demolition gives way To a Beautiful Rebuilding

Who I am… an Offering of Self
I don’t know if I had heard this song before but I’ve heard it twice in the past two days and LOVE it. Check out some of the lyrics here… I think it’s pretty obvious from reading them, why I think this song is awesome: “You see yourself in the mirror of the temporary And… Continue reading Who I am… an Offering of Self

Wow. There are so many things I’ve been wanting to blog about, but because of all the awesome things happening right now, I have has less and less time to actually write about it.

Cleaning House.
Cleaning house. Okay so really it’s an apartment, but whatever. Most of the time, I keep (most of) my living space pretty neat. Certain areas of generally more “homey” and less organized than others. For example, my kitchen is one place that I can’t STAND to be messy. Yet, in my music/craft/prayer/extra room rarely… Continue reading Cleaning House.
It’s Kinda Like Making Bread…
Upon returning home from work today, I decided I would NOT try to go out to volleyball tonight. The roads weren’t too bad but after almost getting stuck 3 times going in/out of the church parking lot today, I decided not to press my luck (for lack of a better phrase). Instead, seeing multiple unused… Continue reading It’s Kinda Like Making Bread…
Vacations are for Detours
I come ‘round the last curve in the road. A smile grows on my face as contentment grows in my soul. If I wasn’t sure before, I’m now convinced that this impromptu detour down “J-Hill” road was a great idea. I can’t wait to get down the drive and park the car, quick turning off… Continue reading Vacations are for Detours
‘Tis Good, Lord, To Be Here
Today was a beautiful day. I’m currently back at school in Nebraska for a Mid-Year Conference with all of the DCE interns from all over the world. These few days back on campus are hard to describe. Most of us interns have used the word “weird” in that description more times than we probably can count. It’s… Continue reading ‘Tis Good, Lord, To Be Here
Truly a Beautiful Sight!
Here is a glimpse into the beautiful sight I witnessed while I worshipped this weekend: Two middle school students working together to make sure we had light on the candles in the front of the Church to help us focus on THE Light, Jesus. Three high school student singing, playing, leading the congregation in… Continue reading Truly a Beautiful Sight!
Content to Linger
As I opened my Facebook page this afternoon, the first day of 2011, my eyes fell upon these words in the status of a friend: We're in no hurry, God. We're content to linger in the path sign-posted with your decisions. Who you are and what you've done are all we'll ever want. – Isaiah… Continue reading Content to Linger
A Bold Prayer…
It seems that a couple times a year, I stumble upon this prayer that I once read in a book. And this morning, as I glanced back through some journals, I read it once again. It’s a bold prayer… A scary prayer… A prayer that maybe we don’t really want to pray, because we… Continue reading A Bold Prayer…
