BEHOLD! I have returned! So. It’s weird trying to start blogging again after being dark for so long. The last time I posted was August. That’s forever in blog-years. I feel like I should have a long, in-depth post or big news or a new approach to blogging. But I don’t. I just want to […]
I’ve been reading the book of Micah, and the descriptions of the evil and injustice is almost overwhelming. (Seriously, Micah compares the injustices to cannibalism. The leaders are eating their own people by their oppression. It’s… intense.) In the face of all that evil — evil that will ultimately lead to the exile of the entire […]

Unfortunately, we did get a steady rain that lasted all night long. Our tent is decent, but it has its limits. I woke up sometime in the […]
