This Past Sunday I had the privileged to preach at Old West United Methodist Church. It was a challenging experience as I was given a question and not a bible passage. However, I am really proud of how I did. I would like to share my sermon as my reflection for this week. “I […]

In the throws of the ever constant stream of exams that comes with the reality of taking 6 4credit classes, I have desperately tried to cling or to find some semblance of peace. The chaos never ends and it feels like I can never catch my breath. As soon as one thing is done, the […]

The events that occurred last week in Oregon have had an impact on me. Yet again we see violence in a place that should be safe. As a college student I can not help but think about what might happen if a shooter came here to BU. Or what if a shooter was at one […]

Perhaps it is because this year I had far more confidence at camp. I owned it this year, and leaving that scared me. […]

As I sit and contemplate the impending chaos of the weeks to come, I find comfort in knowing that it will all be over soon. Ironically though, I do not feel as stressed out as one might expect me to be. I found, particularly over the weeks of Lent this year, that when I stress, […]

This Past Sunday I was granted the Wonderful opportunity of Preaching at Old West United Methodist Church. I wanted to share my sermon. The written words may not be exactly what I said, but it is pretty close to it. Growing up in the Church, hearing the story of Thomas was a pretty common occurrence, […]

“I am not skilled to understand, What God has willed, what God has planned.” Thank you Aaron Shust for starting my morning prayers. There is something very profound in that line. It is very humbling. As humans we often have this strong desire to understand what God is doing, how it works, we as questions […]

My first week in Boston, I met a lot of new people. I had just recently accepted and become really excited about my calling into ministry. It was also a pivotal piece to my decision to transfer. I found out relatively quickly however, that when people ask you what you want to be when you […]
