To better understand the Trinity, myself and my guides dove into three questions: 1) What is the Trinity? 2) How does it shape your life? and, 3) How would you explain it to someone else? The guides spoke into characteristics that define the Christian Trinitarian God. Their explanation for others involved understanding the person they’re […]

Spring Is Over
I feel like every semester, God keeps doing something bigger and bigger. This semester he showed me a path that I’d only mildly considered: writing & filmmaking. The doors keep opening up for me to enter into this new space. I have so much to learn. But I’m eager. Although I haven’t gotten published the […]

Recap
The year: 2018. The month: January. I go to the Dallas Theological Seminary campus for my first classroom experience.

Seminary School Update
I’ve been meaning to write about my summer. But the school semester at Dallas Theological Seminary started so quickly after I got back from Death Valley, that I really just haven’t been able to reflect. Now isn’t the time either. School is in full swing. I’m on the campus coffee shop writing this right now, […]
