Carrots & Sticks: July 2008
http://kusetsu.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 20, 2008. So if you read my last post you would have seen that I promised pictures. Well now they're on facebook. Enjoy! It has been a long time since I have written one of these scintillating worldwide-interweb articles, but we are all chilling in the logement. For the afternoon with nothing better to do. I suppose you (and I) should be excited about my lack of posting, because it's a strong indication that I was busy actually doing fun things. I had Stoemp Bruxellois. Such a pleasant surpr...

Carrots & Sticks: August 2008
http://kusetsu.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 9, 2008. Tu sais que ça ira. I left off in Bruges. That weekend was really an important one, as it proved to me that intercity travel was not only a possibility, but rather an exciting prospect to pursue during the coming weekends. Bruges was the tip of the iceberg! Once we had mastered the confusing destination/arrivals board at Centraalstation, we felt a sort of manifest destiny awaken within us. Our goal was not even constrained to the Benelux: we sought to go beyond! So with these im...

Reflections of a Ragamuffin
http://reflectionsofaragamuffin.blogspot.com/2008/04/great-friend-of-mine-writes-profound.html
Reflections of a Ragamuffin. Tuesday, April 1, 2008. A great friend of mine writes a profound blog entry quite often that constantly inspires, encourages, and challenges me. I don't know if these entries will do any of those things, but I hope you can take something away. I am just starting to read the book of Joshua, and yesterday I was stuck on this passage from the first chapter-. Have I not commanded you? God repeats that line "Be strong and courageous" several times just in that first chapter.

Thursday, May 27, 2010. Holding out for a hero. A couple days ago i watched Marty. The 1955 Best Picture winner. In case you haven't noticed, a careful blend of Turner Classic Movies and DVR have been really helping this blog out this summer. Sunday, May 23, 2010. We have no way of knowing where the heart is. See, every human is different. Okay, i have FOUR more! But i'm going to keep it brief. Which many felt simply ripped off the story of Pocahontas for the sake of an environmentalist nature was actual...

seventeenth slate: Some people say, "Our God is too big for our body," and then I say, "Compared to what?"
http://seventeenthslate.blogspot.com/2010/11/some-people-say-our-god-is-too-big-for.html
Thursday, November 4, 2010. Some people say, "Our God is too big for our body," and then I say, "Compared to what? One week ago, i was in the middle of worship at InterVarsity, enjoying myself, praising like i do. And then we sang a song that made me sit down and totally lose my vibe. For those of you who haven't heard it, the chorus and bridge read:. Our God, Our God. Our God is greater, our God is stronger. God You are higher than any other. Our God is Healer, awesome in power. Our God, Our God. Let's ...

seventeenth slate: Celebrating Rock'n'Roll Legend Lady Gaga
http://seventeenthslate.blogspot.com/2011/01/celebrating-rocknroll-legend-lady-gaga.html
Wednesday, January 12, 2011. Celebrating Rock'n'Roll Legend Lady Gaga. So a friend of mine recently sent me a Huffington Post article about the recent Passion conference, Chris Tomlin, and Christian rock in general. It was basically saying that Christian rock is finding a niche, citing Tomlin's two albums on Billboard's top 20 last month. It was interesting enough, but it's not exactly news to those in a Christian community that David Crowder, Matt Redman, and Chris Tomlin are popular. There were a few w...

Sunday, May 30, 2010. Reevaluating Student/Teacher Relationships. via Facebook. Gretchen's status: Gretchen Marie is still trying to decide how to approach being a teacher on Facebook. Although I fought this invasion into my personal life for quite a few years, I finally succumbed to the madness about three years ago. And even though I'm on the old side of college life, I still consider Facebook for my generation. I'm still almost a student, right? Should I take our student/teacher relationship to a whol...

Like Rain in the Desert: Traveling Tips and Woes
http://likeraininthedesert.blogspot.com/2010/11/traveling-tips-and-woes.html
Thursday, November 4, 2010. Traveling Tips and Woes. I left on a 2:30 in the morning flight, which is, I'm convinced, the very best way to travel from the Middle East. I nearly slugged a security guard on the way to my gate for trying to take away my water. Why have airlines suddenly declared war on water, btw? Trash that at once, you terrorist! And they tell you to "drink lots of water! When you are on the plane. Well how the bloody hell are we supposed to do that anymore? Once on the plane, pop your Am...
