“You’re So Amazing!…” Um, Not Really

August 12, 2017 1 Comment

If you are in public any amount of time and have any kind of disability, you will undoubtedly get the “You are so amazing” speech. Usually this is followed up with some kind of statement like I could never do what you do, I don’t know how you do it, etc. Different people react to… Continue reading “You’re So Amazing!…” Um, Not Really

Personal Responsibilit and Interdependence

July 9, 2017 Leave a comment

I have been asked to speak at a career day of sorts for blind teenagers headed off to college, and I’ve been thinking about what I am going to attempt to tell them. I say attempt to because I remember myself at that age, and I’m not sure that anything I say in a few… Continue reading Personal Responsibilit and Interdependence

What Christianity Has Taught Me About My Disability

June 24, 2017June 24, 2017 Leave a comment

This article is in response to this article I recently read about a blind person’s experience with the church. I think it is important that we not discount bad experiences with the church. I would never deny this woman’s experiences, but I would like to offer my own perspective. I have written on the topic… Continue reading What Christianity Has Taught Me About My Disability

All Things Are Lawful, but…

June 11, 2017 Leave a comment

In I Corinthians 10:23, Paul writes “All things are lawful, but not all things are helpful. All things are lawful, but not all things build up.” (ESV) This is a convicting verse when you actually dissect what it means. All things are lawful… Paul is simply stating here that all things are lawful. By this… Continue reading All Things Are Lawful, but…

Disability Denial and Discrimination

May 26, 2017 Leave a comment

The New York Times recently published an article entitle The Price of Disability Denial. In this article, Catherine Kudlick discusses her visual impairment and what she felt was discrimination in hiring practices. It is a well written article, but I do disagree with her on some key points. Denial of Disability Hurts Us All First,… Continue reading Disability Denial and Discrimination

A Few Thoughts on Cell Phone Use as a Christian

May 23, 2017May 23, 2017 1 Comment

I have been creating a lesson (or probably a few lessons) for our youth group on cell phone use/technology. I am certainly not against technology, but I think it should be used with caution, especially at a young age. We have a fairly young youth group, so I don’t think many of them have phones… Continue reading A Few Thoughts on Cell Phone Use as a Christian

How I lost 60 pounds

May 18, 2017 2 Comments

Those of you who know me and have spent any amount of time with me have no doubt realized that I have lost quite a bit of weight in the last ten months or so. I have tried not to talk about it too much except with my closest friends as I know it can… Continue reading How I lost 60 pounds

Don’t Judge, Role Model Instead

May 16, 2017 Leave a comment

I have been reading a very interesting book called Janesville, which is about the GM plant closing in that Wisconsin town and how the town reacted. I find it an interesting read. One of the stories particularly struck me. The author was discussing a family’s need to find a new job, and they made the… Continue reading Don’t Judge, Role Model Instead

Freedom and the Christian Life

May 14, 2017 Leave a comment

In this post I would like to analyze Galatians chapter 5 as I feel it has tremendous impact on how we practice our Christianity. We covered part of this chapter in Sunday School today, but there is much of the chapter that we didn’t cover which is also important. Christ has Set Us Free the… Continue reading Freedom and the Christian Life

my views on disability and the christian life

May 13, 2017 Leave a comment

This article started out being about divine healing, but it turned into more than that. The more I wrote the more expansive it became. I hope someone enjoys this post, I plan to write more in the future. Divine healing is a complicated subject, and I can’t claim to do the topic justice in one… Continue reading my views on disability and the christian life
