When I read the words with which the Founding Fathers brought forth our nation I am always deeply moved. The ardor for freedom and passion for justice that are evident in these beautiful words continually stirs my heart.
This Independence Day I would encourage you to read the Declaration of Independence in its entirety:

04Jul08The Five Solas
04Jul08In the last couple of weeks, I’ve been pondering the Five Solas of the Reformation. I’ve been trying to internalize these truths and incorporate them into my worldview. I believe that if I can replicate my assent to these truths from my head to my heart I will be able to live a life that […]
New Work Schedule
30Jun08 I have a new schedule at work, a schedule that just might force me to become a morning person.
By nature I am a night owl. I like to stay up late. If I have to see a sunrise I prefer to do so before bed rather than just as I wake up. I love […]
I really appreciate the fact that God chose to place me in the 21st century in a country with a high rate of broadband proliferation. Tonight, I had the pleasure of chatting with friends across town (Issaquah, Fairwood), across the country (Colorado) and across the world (Japan).
Epic Lego Combat

Like most lunch patrons we ordered the all-you-can-eat Soup, Salad and Breadsticks. It’s amazing how much […]
I Need Help
24Jun08Yesterday, I tried to dissect my last week and figure out why I was able to get so little accomplished. It didn’t take much reflection to recognize that my problem is that I spend way too much time on the internet.
My solution was to turn off my computer and not turn it back on again […]
Free Rice Challenge
23Jun08I mentioned this site awhile back but thought it’d be fun to turn it into a challenge. I know my readers are pretty smart, lets see who can log the top score.
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough!
21Jun08Mount Si After Action Report:
The ascent up the mountain was very slow, but a good time was had by all. We had a large turnout. Justin, Josh, Nat, Aaron, Melissa, Emily, Arita and I met up at the trail head around 2:00, ate a quick lunch and started up about 2:30. The last person struggled […]
If you would attain to what you are not yet, you must always be displeased by what you are. For where you are pleased with yourself there you have remained. Keep adding, keep walking, keep advancing.
