Now, tell me what you think of that?
Every year, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary engages in an evangelism initiative to help encourage the seminary family to take the Gospel to the lost. One of the things I most admire about my seminary is how evangelistic it is. Every semester [...]

First things first, you can find the full article from the Washington Times here.
I try to avoid talking politics on here unless it relates to issues of military, morality, or theology. This is one report that definitely needs to be read and it should make any clear headed person furious at some of the outright [...]

I attend a Southern Baptist Convention seminary which means our campus bookstore is also a Lifeway store. I was in the store a couple of weeks ago to see if my textbook list for the semester had been released yet and I saw something that caught my eye. It was a small Bible decked out [...]

This week I had the opportunity to attend my first CAST (Chaplain Annual Sustainment Training). In order to be able to attend CAST, I took all my finals last week. That was a lot of extra stress considering I did them all on one day and had about five days less to prepare for them, [...]

The last few months I have had the privilege of being assigned to drill with aBN Chaplain so that I can learn by observing him and taking on some responsibilities myself.

I posted on this earlier in the week, but it continues to make headlines. Groups that would like to see the influence of certain Christian groups in the military lessened are spinning this as proof that the military is taking on a decidedly hostile tone to those who are not Christians.
My experience at the Chaplain [...]

I read an article this evening that reminded just how violently some people seem to oppose the protestant evangelical majority in the military Chaplaincy. I am curious what your thought are about the issue and what your initial reaction is to this article.
My initial reaction was one of frutration because I greatly value the opportunity [...]

Here is a packing list that I came up with off the top of my head. This is in no way an official packing list. I already have most of my uniforms because I was enlisted before I became an officer and had them issued to me.

2. Toothpaste
3. Deodorant
4. Sunblock
5. Mouthwash
6. Razor
7. [...]

The date is rapidly approaching when I will depart for three months of Chaplain Basic Officer Leadership Course. I am, for the most part, looking forward to the training. In my opinion, this is the best summer job a seminary student could ask for. I will be getting paid better than about anything I could [...]
