Today after classes let out, one of my good friends was giving me a ride home. When I said I didn’t want to cook tonight, she said she didn’t really want to either. So we sat in the car and thought about what places were around that we could try. We ended up at City […]

Enter Sandman. Exit Sandman
It’s the last time that the number 42 will make an appearance in an All-Star Game (ASG). It’s the last year that the number 42 will ever appear in a game. And it’s going to be sad to say goodbye to the player that wears it. Mariano Rivera.
On the Road to Indy
The summer between my sophomore and junior year at Spring Arbor, I found this internship with MLB.com (oh, what a dream!) and in the process, I found out about a Master’s of Sports Journalism program at IUPUI. As my junior year progressed, I applied for the internship and thought about the Master’s program. But continuing […]

“Everyone who terrifies you is sixty-five percent water. And everyone you love is made of stardust, and I know sometimes you cannot even breathe deeply, and the night sky is no home, and you have cried yourself to sleep enough times that you are down to your last two percent, but nothing is infinite, not […]
Honoring Newtown, CT
The tears come and go as I try to wrap my head around what happened in Newtown, CT. I cannot fathom the pain or the grief, but I continue to pray that these families will find the strength they need to move forward. The lives of those children will never be forgotten – they will […]

For one of my courses this semester, my professor handed out a challenge of the Biblical sort. Read a book of Proverbs, Acts and one of the gospels that corresponds with the number date of the month. Read the Bible EVERYDAY and not just for a homework assignment, but to make it a daily habit. […]
I Am Second
A good friend of mine introduced me to an organization named I am Second. And I’m so glad he did. The purpose of I am Second is “to inspire people of all kinds to live for God and for others. Actors. Athletes. Musicians. Business leaders. Drug addicts. Your next door neighbor. People like you.” Each […]
Stephan Feck’s back flop
The Olympics are the time when athletes need to be at their best. It’s the biggest stage that any athlete can perform on. It’s so big that it only occurs every 4 years. This is also not the place to perform at your worst. Unfortunately, this happened to German diver Stephan Feck. On a dive […]
Oh I’m a writer.
If you’re writing, you’re a writer. I write. I write a lot. And most of my writing is in my head and you may never read some of it. It took a long time for me to figure out that I was a writer. Sure I picked up crayons and paper when I was younger […]
Detroit Tigers Baseball
It’s the day after my favorite team lost the American League Championship Series to the Texas Rangers. I was heartbroken, sad, and just frustrated. Every game this series was close and then my Tigers get blown out of the water, 15-5, in Game 6. My heart just ached.
