Church Garage Sale Fundraiser

All the blurred flurry of a month's preparation--collecting and making donations, advertising, organizing, coordinating, setting up tables, making signs, and launching, funneled to a fixed point in time. We circled round the register at the end of the day, counted the change, and punched the final totals into the calculator. I think we all held …

Alaska’s Wild Plants

When I travel, I don't just look for the tourist landmarks, I note the flowers and trees. The color, texture, smell--essence of a place. I like to buy a wildflower guidebook wherever I go and take home a little of every place I visit. This guidebook I purchased in Skagway, Alaska and used to identify …

10 Movies That Impacted Me

I was nominated on Facebook for the 10-day Movie Challenge. Every day I had to select an image from a film that has impacted me in some way, present it without a single explanation, and nominate somebody to take the challenge. Here are my ten photos:

Thoughts on the IRBS Seminary Convocation: A Call to Prayer

On Sept. 11th of this year, my brother and I hurried home from work to watch the Convocation of the IRBS Seminary. All day long I had glanced at my watch every half hour, mentally going over all that was left to be done and how long it would take. Today of all days, I …

Frankenstein: A Screenplay

A. S. Peterson proved himself an extraordinary storyteller with his "Fin's Revolution" series--a master of words, imagery, and human nature. It's been several years since I read them but there are certain scenes from Fin's Revolution that still stand out vivid in my memory, haunting, comforting, in their terrible beauty. Fin's story touched parts of …

Modern News: Lemme Know When The Book Comes Out

I hate the medium of modern news so much. Here's how I find out about current events: *walks in on volatile Twitter argument* *stares uncomprehendingly as WW3 erupts* *scrolls through comments* *still doesn't know what started the argument* *stalks accounts of 3 people involved* *still doesn't know what actually happened* *asks what I think is …

New Book in the Mail! Frankenstein: A Screenplay

"The story of Victor Frankenstein and his creature is much more than a mere monster tale. It's a story rich with theological, sociological, …
