Four years ago I decided (somewhat begrudgingly) to attend the University of Louisville. Around the same time they went through a rebranding, adopting the new slogan “It’s Happening Here”, I’ve always made fun of that moniker… things happen everywhere, what does “it” refer to? It took nearly four years to see what the “it” could … Continue reading
Monday’s Musings
“If God never did anything other than send His Son to save you, would that be enough for you to praise Him?” – Zach Schlegel on Hab. 3:17-18 Meditating on this tonight. He is more than enough for me. I will praise Him through all the storms in life. Continue reading
remembering what Jesus has already done
I just finished writing a paper for my History of the Holocaust class (which is not as interesting as it sounds like it should be, unfortunately) so this post is probably going to be cut short. Also, I’m driving back to Georgetown tonight to vote (go vote tomorrow!) so this post will most definitely be … Continue reading
Currently Reading
Somehow, throughout the past few years, I’ve aggregated quite a few books on the topic of Religion and Theology. Sadly, between reading the nearly 1000 pages I have to do weekly for my classes (and that’s only a slight exaggeration), and wanting to have something that somewhat resembles a social life, all those books I want to … Continue reading
hoping in God, not a god who gives you things. – monday’s musings
In effort to start updating this blog more consistently, I’m starting a segment called “Monday Musing with Manderz”.

Lately well meaning people, and dear friends, have consistently … Continue reading

Jake’s Visit to the Commonwealth
Nearly a month ago Jake made a short visit to the Bluegrass State. I guess I was too busy wanting to spend time with him to remember to take pictures. However, my mom snapped a few. Here are some of my favorite (click on the image for a larger view). Continue reading
The End of an Era
So the title of this post may be a bittt dramatic. Maybe just a tad. Because really, it’s actually only the end of the summer. But that’s the end of an era, right? Yesterday marked the first day of classes for students at the best and brightest University in all of America (that happens to … Continue reading
Reflections About the Time I Returned to Wildwood
So here it is. The much awaited, final conclusion of my Wildwood Summer. Hard to believe I’m back in the South, right? In typical me fashion, I’ve put off posting anything until I processed through and created clear thoughts on the adventure that was my summer. However, my thoughts probably won’t make very much sense. … Continue reading
Wildwood Perks
*So I’m just now actually getting around to posting this and adding pictures. Oops. A week and a half late isn’t that behind schedule, right? At the beginning of Project students created a “Wildwood SP Perks” Twitter account where they retweeted different things Project people tweeted. Here’s a sampling of what you would find – … Continue reading
