Side Streets And Highways

It was my day off. A Friday morning after a busy week of work. All I needed to do that day was get my car to my neighbourhood mechanic for what I believed would be a simple break repair. I got up early with Kirstyn, and once she left for downtown I dropped off my … Continue reading Side Streets And Highways

Reading Two Five

I never used to read. One summer, my mom tried to solicit a deal with me: she would give me a dollar for every book I read. I found the shortest book on my shelf (one that was certainly too young for me) and got my first dollar. I read the same book a second … Continue reading Reading Two Five

I measured the current unit, went to the store to find one roughly the same size, and came home to replace it. I told … Continue reading Good Friday Reflection

It took me 7 years to run 5km, and 7 years to write this blog post.

Last year (2017) I ran 400 km. For me, that was a huge accomplishment. There are things in life that I pick up quickly. I pick up new musical instruments with ease. I once acquired an accordion and was writing ditties on it within a couple of days. Another time I was at a birthday party … Continue reading It took me 7 years to run 5km, and 7 years to write this blog post.

I Wrote A Thesis

In September, 2013, I moved to Toronto to pursue Graduate studies at Wycliffe College and Toronto School of Theology. I was going for a Master of Arts in Theology degree and I was in the Biblical Studies department, focussing on Hebrew Bible (Old Testament). As I approached the end of my course work I had … Continue reading I Wrote A Thesis
