New To Crown


Talk about crazy. I am currently sitting in my dorm room for the year chillin on my mac after a great day of registering. I think the weirdest piece of this whole thing is that it feels so natural. I can't imagine myself being anywhere else. At any rate, moving in was great, I am really near Drew which is tight. At any rate, i think i am going to hit the hay, but I wanted you to know if you live in Oregon, i miss you guys. oh, and here is a picture of my dorm room!

Love you guys

The Ted DekKer Cirlce and Combining

While combining, one can get pretty bored just sitting, doing nothing. At least this is how i felt when going 1.5 miles per hour in circles. However, i have found a new joy that i would have never expected to come across: reading. I know, i know, i am a graduate from high school, i should love reading and all that comes with it. Yet, there has always been a gloom over reading for me. This changed as soon as i picked up the Ted DekKer Circle Series. The titles are Black, Red, and White, and the stories have honestly changed my perspective on God. The whole idea of a New Jerusalem was fogged and blurred and somewhat twisted in my mind, that is, until you read of Thomas Hunter's expedition of finding God and saving the world (of course). At any rate, i believed that combining was simply going to be a growth in my wallet size (everyone needs money for college), God has taken me on a much bigger journey of discovering more of who he is, and how much he loves us. This excites me tremendously. I would suggest that anyone that wants to get sucked into a great adventure and possible learn more about their creator should pick these three up from the store, library, or from my house.

With each day, God is showing me something new and exciting, i hope today is going to be another one of those days!
