Infographic describing significant details of the oil spill catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico. Worth a look, all the way to the bottom of the page where it’s mentioned that this is just ONE of 3,858 oil wells in the Gulf!

The Hootenanny Proposal
April 14, 2010
I am so incredibly blessed to be in love with and loved by an amazing woman of God. Here is the video of our quiet and intimate proposal on April 9, 2010 (at LETU’s Hootenanny!) I feel loved by the students, too, who so graciously initiated me into the rich heritage of the ponding tradition right afterward.
Blessed Ash Wednesday!
February 17, 2010
Today is Ash Wednesday, the day in the Christian calendar marking the beginning of the 40-day period of Lent which prepares our hearts and minds and ultimately our souls for the most significant holy-day: Easter. A time for reflection and soul searching, the season of Lent calls us to follow Jesus, watch what he does, listen to what he says and identify with Jesus in his mission. The closer we come to Jesus, the more we become aware of the ways our lives and actions may not reflect the life and vision of Jesus. This year, I think I will be using Goshen College’s Daily Lenten Devotional as a catalyst for reflection.
May this day–and the Lenten season–be one of repentance and self-denial as we look toward abundant life made available ONLY through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ!

A Million Miles LIVE (2009)
November 12, 2009
Here’s a copy of the fascinating lecture Donald Miller provides on his 65-stop tour for his latest book A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. A great discussion of story and the role it can play in weaving together a life more interesting and meaningful than just a series of unrelated events. He told us tonight to share it with the world, so here’s to my small portion of it!

A counterpart to the Periodic Table of fonts below…a second love of mine is graphic design and anything logo-related. Here is a great blog showing the latest logo updates from around the world. You know you’re a graphic nerd when you come up with the same critiques as the ‘experts.’
