So I just got back from Hawaii. After a thorough evaluation of the sun, the surf and the girls; I feel like I can give an honest opinion about it. I recommend it. My brother needed to go to his friend's wedding in Maui, so I flew the two of us out there for a week. The wedding was nice, outdoors, and pretty. It was followed by a luau. It got me thinking, I've been to quite a few weddings in my day, in fact for a while, it seemed I was a professional groomsman. Some of these we... Read Full Story

It is the spark that ignited the Protestant Reformation.Luther was fighting for what he believed was right, as he is famously quoted as saying, “It is unsafe and dangerous to do anything against one’s conscience. Here I stand, I cannot do otherwise. So help me God. Amen.... Read Full Story

A while back, I penned a few thoughts about one of my favorite authors, Donald Miller. If you've never read any of his work, I recommend him. I realized the other day, that I've never put anything about him on this blog, so I thought I would share it with my GH readers. I think you will see why I appreciate him so much.So I've been reading and rereading the same books since Christmas. I went to the bookstore intending to perhaps pick up some good books for my family as gifts. And... Read Full Story

To: Mr. George PearsonsChairman of the Board of RegentsDear Mr. Pearsons and other Regents,You have invited ORU alumni to offer their opinions on the current situation at the University, particularly with Mr. and Mrs. Roberts. I welcome this opportunity, and pray that you actually take the time to read and consider my thoughts.

I’ve been wondering when I should post this. Now seems like as good of a time as any. I’m sure most of you that attended ORU with me are already familiar with this story, but I still think it’s worth telling.My Freshman year of college was an interesting one. It was a developmental time for me.Moving from Wisconsin, where I had lived all my life, all the way down to Tulsa was a pretty big deal. I had never seen the campus before the day I moved in. For those of you who aren’t familiar with th... Read Full Story

My one year anniversary at the airline is coming up. It’s tomorrow actually. It really brings back a lot of fond memories from the whole employment process. For those of you that may be less familiar with the employment process of working for an airline, it takes a long time. It took about three months from the time I submitted my application to the time I started orientation.The day after orientation, we all flew down to Memphis. FA (flight attendant) training would be three weeks long. If w... Read Full Story

I lived in Tulsa, Oklahoma for seven years. That is how most of you are fortunate enough to know me. I lived in the dorms at ORU for the first four and half years. Then they changed the men’s curfew rule, and I promptly moved off campus. I finished my last year and a half living off campus in Broken Arrow. No one knew I was still a student. If you saw me during that time, you may have thought it was strange how often I visited the campus. You may have even thought I was having trouble letting... Read Full Story

“Life resembles a novel more often than novels resemble life.”-George Sand So I'm a flight attendant. Yup, it's a pretty sweet deal. Snappy uniform, exotic places, seeing the world and all that. It's very, very exciting. Do you know how many people stay up at night just wishing they could be flight attendants?? Hundreds, maybe even thousands. But not just anyone can be a flight attendant. It's not like you can just walk into the flight attendant place and say, "I'd l... Read Full Story
