Well folks, the semester is winding down. Commissioning is only just around the corner. On one hand the whole campus is building in excitement; on the other, sadness. As our campus is being dismantled we realize that even when we come back to visit, its never going to be the same. Mom and Dad are redoing the room, before we have even leave for school. But we understand. We joined knowing that progress was …

See AllA. W. Tozer’s book The Knowledge of the Holy is a classic in Christian theology. For the young Christian, this text can make the queen of the sciences seem down to earth. For the advanced student of theology, it can serve as a refreshing reminder of the merits of Christian thinking. At the beginning of the book, Tozer pens incredibly simple, yet profound words in classic Tozer style, “What comes in our minds when we …

This week has been a full one for those of us here at IMPACT360. We were blessed to have Dr. Basie teaching us Bioethics this week and last night was the start of our last Interview/Preview Day with students from Texas, California and Georgia, as well as other areas. We mixed it up last night with some Minute-to-Win-It games and a few rounds of “Don’t Forget the Lyrics” to ramp it up. It was …

Class this week was on the morality and attributes of God. It was so interesting! On Thursday in the academy we talked about prayer. One of the questions was what was the point of praying if there is free-will? What’s the point of praying for The Lord to guide you if you are just going to make the decision? Another question that was, why pray if we are predestined? If everything is determined for …

After going through all the modules, experiences, and classes we have experienced together at IMPACT, it feels weird for this year to be coming to an end soon. I have seen in myself an exponential amount of growth after the Brazil trip, and I have seen a great change in the depth of our community. It’s easy to just get swept up in the flow of this time of year though. It seems like …

For the first half of the week, we had the pleasure of sitting under the teaching of Dr. John Stonestreet. He taught us about our culture, about who makes culture, and how we contribute to culture. One thing that stuck out to me is that, these days, the range of adolescence is from ages 11-30. That’s crazy! What happened in our culture, today, to make the range so wide? Why is there such a …

Woohoo! Round two of manly men time just passed – and, man, did we have fun! While the ladies were on their womanhood retreat, the guys got another weekend to themselves. Thursday, after the ladies left, an eerie quietness fell upon the campus. The reason being the guys were having a legit and very manly time at Trent Wilbanks’ abode playing board games, throwing the football, cooking steaks, and watching Braveheart! FREEDOM!!! Along with …

This past weekend was the manhood retreat. As it came close to time, the ladies said goodbye to the men and then saw them off. Before they left each lady drew a name out of a cup, picking a man to pray for as he embarked on this transformation. We also made sure to pray for them and fast from something so that whenever we were tempted break our fast, we would stop and …
