Awkward conversations and lots of phone calls

In this stage of my life, I have to partake in a lot of phone calls. Phone calls between people I have never met before over college things and subjects I know nothing about yet. In this past month specifically, I have realized that I am not at all comfortable with these types of phone…

Moving forward

Hello guys, it has been so long! First of all, this is still, “The Christian Prepster”. I know there have been a lot of changes here including the name change and I wanted to answer some questions and share some news. About 6 months ago I took a leap and started podcasting. Since then I…

Letter to the High School(s) I’ve walked through these past four years

Dear High School buildings, I entered your afraid, nervous, and utterly excited beyond belief. I was finally here. Finally able to walk these halls and own them as my very own. I walked in with a group of friends I will forever be thankful for and you gave me the memories to go along with…

Sitting at the end of a long table at Starbucks, alone

I don’t come here very often, only when I have time to kill. I have a meeting in an hour and thought I could use some really good coffee. So I drove up, pulled in, and ordered my coffee. The last time I was here, the coffee was GREAT. But maybe they messed up my…

What to do to get out of a slump

It happens to the very best of us. The ones with jobs at a church and the ones who are struggling to find time to even touch our Bibles. It happens to the busy and the lazy alike. The fast and the slow. Every person goes through these phases of feeling in a “funk” in…

One Year Older

Here we are again. For the past four years of having this blog, I have always written a “birthday” post in celebration of my birthday that is February 8th. There are some of my very favorite posts because I take the time to reflect on my life, every single year and I get to document…

A Letter to the one who wants to throw in the towel

We have all been right where you are. I know it feels like you are alone in this place, and it may seem like nobody else understands what you have to deal with. But, even if you have already decided to quit and you are reading this with a closed mind. I beg of you,…

Best of 2018

Am I the only one who thinks that this month has flown by? This has been the fastest January ever and there is only a little over a week left. Craziness. When I opened up my laptop, I am not going to lie, I had no idea what to write about. With the new podcast,…

A New Addition

I have dreamed about doing this for such a long time but have always been hesitant to actually go for it. It was the same fear I had before I started this blog. I didn’t want people to think of me as weird for having a blog or for… now, having a Podcast!! It’s not…

Whats Hitting Home with me Right Now

Happy Wednesday! By the time this post shows up on your screen, I will officially be in the second semester of my Senior year of high school! What a crazy, crazy thought. For Christmas, I received a book that I actually purchased for my friend’s birthday a while back. I ordered it and was glancing…
