It seems I am not alone in this as I have heard both professors and students talk about how seminary was/is a spiritually trying time. Fortunately, I have found great joy in the last six months through being able to do ministry in [...]

Obama is choosing to worship under a military Chaplain, and 2. the CH is a Southern Baptist and a graduate of the institution I am currently attending, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

For as long as I can remember I have enjoyed American history. My young country has a fascinating history full colorful figures, incredible leaders, and vile accounts of how twisted humanity can be.

Here is an excerpt of his statement:

I confess, I haven’t gone to chapel this semester. If I would have gone to chapel, I would have heard Dr. Thomas White deliver a sermon on Psalm 127. Here is a link to the full sermon. The controversial comments start at about 19:00.

Well, I’ve been back home for almost two weeks now. There is definitely not as much to post about since I finished CHBOLC.
