Well, your girl decided to go to her first high school reunion! This podcast is actually being published on the exact date I graduated, 10 years ago! June 8th! I can't believe it's been 10 years. Some people think it's ridiculous to go back to reunite with people from school, others live for the memories they will make with them again. How does our relationship with God play into it all? Take a ride with me as we jump into my Stream of Konsciousness on the subject! Find out why it was important to me to go to my reunion, more about my experiences and what I learned about life and God while I was there!

Choose Life for Cheslie

Choose Life for Cheslie

This episode is impromptu, and one that I never thought I would have to record. However, I find it necessary to speak life into anyone who will listen. America lost our beautiful (on the inside and out), former Miss USA, Cheslie Kryst. This devastating loss was a shock; but I feel that this tragedy can also become a beautiful beginning if we do not waste the lesson, legacy and impact that her life and death left us. As this is a recent loss, not all news reports have come in, not all the facts are known. This means that I am only talking from limited knowledge that I have read about the situation. I am no mental health expert, clinical psychologist, pastor or professional. I did not know Cheslie, or her family personally, and am merely a fan and fellow mourner. With these factors in mind, there are some things I am not authorized to talk about (what she felt and thought) due to lack of experience or personal contact; but I do feel that it is important to encourage anyone I can to choose life. If I can encourage anyone that life is worth living and waiting for things to get better, then I will do my best. Additionally, as far as technology goes, this episode will not be of the same audio quality as most episodes due to technical issues. I hope, however, that the impact of the message will outweigh the differences in the volume. Enjoy!
