“CAR!” my friend, Steve yelled, but it was too late. We didn’t see the car in time. I had just enough time to turn my front wheel and suddenly I was flying through the air and the “WHAM!” I hit the pavement and the back of my head whiplashed into the asphalt, cracking my helmet. [...]

Posted in Christianity, Jesus, Spirituality on April 20, 2012 | 1 Comment »
On Sundays we try and focus more on the Savior than we normally would during the week. By this I don’t mean that we forget about God during the week and then do a turn-around on the Sabbath, but we try and make Sundays a little more focused on Jesus and His gospel. One example [...]

Somehow I’m just not as connected to the blogosphere as I thought. I received an email with all this hype around a guy who had stood up in General Conference and taken a goofy picture. It went viral and now became featured in a series of posters on the LDS Friends website with captions underneath them. I [...]

I received a forward from my cousin that I thought was funny. I don’t think I’ve ever shared one on my blog, but I got a little chuckle from this one. If you’ve seen this before, just delete this as you normally would. If not, I hope you like it. Here it is: A Minneapolis [...]
BYU is the Most Popular University in the U.S.
Posted in Spirituality on February 2, 2011 | 12 Comments »
I graduated from BYU and thought it was a very rigorous program. I never really did want to go there but ended up going there by default. It was much less rigid than Ricks College (now BYU-Idaho) was so BYU was a bit of a breath of fresh air for me. The football games were [...]
