A weekend I will never forget


This past weekend, I was given the opportunity of visiting Liberty University with some friends. I was in a huge debate over this. I had the choice of either going home or visiting Liberty. Well, after much indecisiveness, I finally chose to visit Liberty.

It was a nasty weekend, the rain just kept pouring and therefore that made our 4 hour drive a tad bit stressful but we did have some fun singing on the way there. In so many words I would say that we had to make our own fun. The campus was huge and I was immediately hit with the unending list of rules that come with attending this school. I was already unintentionally breaking a rule. I wore a skirt that came above my knees and that would of been a huge "no,no" for liberty students. There is a strict dress code there. I wont list all the rules but they made Liberty seem very legalistic.

In short, I will say that I was extremely grateful afterwards that I attend Montreat College.I don't think Ive ever been so ready to come back. I don't mean to "diss" any one's fondness of Liberty. There were some elements of Liberty I really enjoyed such as the nice people I came in contact with. However, I'm saying that it would never be the school for me. I appreciate my school of freedom to do as I please, while still maintaining the vision of a christian community.

Youre all I want




This video ultimately displays the Father's love. It correlates with faith, learning, and technology. The faith aspect of it all, is the idea that we can have faith that God is in control and He IS mighty to save. He can save us from anything. Including the lies that technology tells us. Lies that we need to be more beautiful or that we are not smart enough.
He is bigger than any influence the world may have on us regarding our faith, technology, and learning.
