Stephen King’s It A Review
Today is Halloween. I thought I would offer of a review of what is in my opinion the biggest scariest book of all time. I have read this book multiple times and it never fails to chill me. It’s not just the ghost or monsters that lurk ready to spring at the reader, but the …
Esther 2 Character Not Cosmetics
With my bible study group, I have been looking at the book of Esther. The only book in the bible that doesn’t mention God, yet it seems that God is present nonetheless. Much like in our lives, we cannot see or touch God in a physical sense, yet God is very much present and with …
Romans 6–Under Grace
As we move along, we begin to grasp what it really means to live a life under grace with God. Paul is pushing us from the mystical insight that we have been saved and are being saved by grace alone. Christians are to live close to Christ all our lives are to be lived in …
Romans 6 Alive In Christ

Why Math Is Important
I am currently taking College Algebra. I was not all that happy when I started, but I must say that it was one of my best experiences at school so far. I have learned more in this class than all of my past math classes. It’s been exciting, fresh, and frustrating. I thought I would …
Esther 1 Uneventful Beginning
My bible study group is just began a study of the Old Testament book of Esther. I don’t feel ashamed to say I don’t quite understand what this book is trying to teach us. Don’t look at this post of any of the future posts on Esther as comprehensive or deeply theological commentaries; see them …
