For the few of you who read this site, I have a question for you.
If a person has a more task-oriented than relational leadership style (i.e. would rather cross things off a to-do list than spend time on interpersonal relationships), how does he improve his relational leadership skills?
I’m guessing it’s possible, but I have no clue [...]
I was away all of last week, visiting my family in Roanoke, VA for Thanksgiving. This morning, while reading the school newspaper, I came across the University chaplain’s weekly writing, titled “The Chaplain’s Corner.” He wrote about a poem by George Herbert, a 17th century Welsh poet, and how most people know the [...]
Wow. It’s hard to believe, but a single word really can describe last night’s Switchfoot and Relient K concert.
All four bands (Cloverleaf, Ruth, Relient K and Switchfoot) were great, but Relient K and Switchfoot were amazing. The musical talent of Relient K’s members amazed me: the lead singer played both the guitar and [...]
During my lunch hour today, I drove up to Lewisburg to pick up a Copy & Print Online order I placed yesterday. Once in the store, I made my way over to the Copy & Print Center where a gentleman and a lady were working with a sales associate to find what looked like [...]
This past Sunday, the high school students were supposed to participate in the second week of “Heart of a Champion.” Things changed, however, when on Saturday morning I met with the other volunteers to discuss coming events, the spring schedule, etc. One of the volunteers reminded me that last year we made care [...]

Yesterday afternoon, my sister Stacy and her husband Jeff had their first child, Kaylie Annabelle Dyne. This is the first grandchild for my parents and, thus, the first niece for both me and my younger sister, Lindsey.
Throughout the past year, several people in my church have said that I have a good singing voice and should join the choir or praise team. I’ve thought about it quite a bit, prayed about it even more and finally decided that God was, in fact, calling me to sing in one of these [...]
Yesterday I purchased three tickets for Switchfoot and Relient K’s Appetite for Construction Tour stop at Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center, held next Thursday, November 15. Christian rock band Ruth and a local band, Cloverleaf, are the opening acts.
The decision to travel to State College happened quite randomly at this week’s The Gap [...]
Last night the high school students started a new study titled “Heart of a Champion.” The four-week study helps “students explore the nature of their heart—and how to develop a heart that seeks to reflect the character of God.”
The first week of the series focuses on having a heart for others and caring for [...]
