"Joy to the world" and "Rejoice, Rejoice" are common lyrics in our ears around this time of year. Many can relate to that joyful feeling of unwrapping gifts as a kid or making Christmas treats with loved ones, but these moments are quick and the happiness doesn't last.

The end of each semester is often a time of reflection- did the semester go well, what could have gone better, what are changes to make for next semester?

Have you ever had to inherit a legacy or take over a project that you felt was bigger than you or required someone stronger, smarter, or better than anything you could bring to the table?

I don’t know about you, but when I’m invited to lead something or work on something that’s new to me, I can freeze up a little. I feel honored and excited to try something new

During the month of November, we'll be exploring God's promises in the Old Testament. As we approach Thanksgiving, it's good for us to remember all that God will fulfill his promises to us!

The first Tuesday of November. Election Day. If you’re a student in college, this is most likely the first presidential election that you are able to vote in. It’s exciting, right? But also intense.

The other day I tried to sit down and just be still for a moment. Instantly, my legs got uncomfortable. They wanted to keep moving. The thought of slowing down was terrifying so instead my body urged me to keep finding new things to distract myself.

No one likes uncertainty. Sure, a little bit of unpredictability is fun. I’m thinking of those unplanned, late night taco runs with my sorority sisters. Or the spontaneous stupid pranks we pulled on our favorite fraternity. But after a while, instability and uncertainty get a little old.

We are meant to know others and be known by others. God's beautiful design is what brings us together in supportive communities and fulfilling relationships. While this is what we strive for in our daily life, sometimes our broken world can get in the way and loneliness enters the picture.

Soooooo it's already the middle of August. Where did March, April, May, June and July go? When life seems more chaotic than stable, days, weeks and months tend to fly by.

This week we are wrapping up our time in the book of Philippians. As we shared in previous weeks, the Apostle Paul wrote this while he was in prison.

To be a member in Greek life means: you were most likely born in America, have a high school diploma, attend a 4-year university, and have the means to pay for it via employment, scholarships/loans, or having parents who can support you.

When I was pledging a fraternity in college, humility was the furthest thing from my mind. 

During college, every time that I came home for a break, whether for summer or Christmas, I often heard the same refrain from friends and family: “You’re so different!”

“These unprecedented times...” “Awful year” “Yeah, it’s been weird” “I’m tired.” “This is so hard”. No one even needs me to write an introduction about how unfamiliar this season of life is for everyone.

I love going on night time drives with my best friends. There’s something strangely peaceful about an open road, littered with the lights of an occasional street lamp or passing vehicle. Our conversations often ebb and flow between belly laughs and comfortable silence.

I remember the excitement that came before any party, formal, mixer, etc. during my undergrad years. I remember the laughter and camaraderie that signaled the revelry to come, echoing throughout the Fraternity house.

I expect everyone, as a kid (or even as an adult), has that one article of clothing that just needs to go. It’s tired, faded and torn, but we simply won’t depart from it because, despite being decrepit and maybe filthy, it’s familiar and comfortable.

It takes only a few seconds of scrolling through social media to see that our country is filled with injustice, privilege, violence, fighting, finger pointing, and distrust. Maybe you, like me, find yourself asking “God, where is the justice? Where is the grace?” almost every minute of the day these days.
