Learning to Love What You Hate

I am terrible at art. Just terrible at it. You could give me every single art tool that has ever been created and I could maybe MAYBE make a stick figure. Art is something I never just had a talent for, and it was never something I saw myself improving in over time. There are…

Everybody Needs Somebody!

Like most other young men and women out there, you and I have the same problem.  We are weak and fallen human beings who get bucked off the horse sometimes!  What do we need in those times? What will keep us steady? There are many things, but a very important one is each other.  Imagine…

With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility… and with Great Responsibility Comes Great Chastity

It’s been said across almost every form of media, comics, cartoons, movies and more.

Sacrificial? A friend of mine once asked a group of 7th graders what chastity was. A deafening silence fell across the room as…

Sexting (What To Do)

A while back I wrote about an experience I had where I found myself on the receiving end of a sext that was not intended for me. If you’d like to read it for context, click here. Since then, it’s been on my heart to write some sort of follow up. This time, however, I’d…

What Chastity Has Taught Me

 If you haven’t seen Frozen 2, please take the time! Olaf is hilarious and He says a line in the movie that stuck to me, “Did you know that an enchanted forest is a place of transformation? I have no idea what that means but I can’t wait to see what it’s going to do…
