O. Henry wrote, “Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American.” With a holiday that has become inundated with football, TV shows and shopping, that statement seems to ring true. But with all these distractions, who has time to give thanks?
Hey followers. Wow, what beautiful weather for November! I can’t remember the last time it was this nice this late in the year. Maybe the mice (at home) I am catching know something that I don’t.
Hey troops! How is the first semester going? I am hearing great things! I was thinking of what to write for this week and decided on “Pet Peeves.” We all have them, don’t say you don’t, you know you do.
In the 2016 presidential election, which will undoubtedly be a historic moment in America’s history regardless of the outcome, how should Christians conduct ourselves? How are Christians to act when the media paints us as discriminatory and extreme? Christians face constant scrutiny and the world is looking to us as we react to this election season.
Some religious institutions are Catholic affiliations. Some are Lutheran. Oak Hills Christian College is an interdenominational institution, which means we celebrate the strengths of many different denominations.
You’ve heard the research and statistics that young people are abandoning their faith in increasing numbers. Whether attending secular college has to do with these rates or not, Oak Hills Christian College operates on the belief that a firm biblical foundation will equip you for whatever your future has in store, regardless of the career path God calls you into.

Okay, I was asked by our marketing department to write a blog. Oh, yea, a blog, at 64 years old I really understand what a blog is? I am a team player so I said I can do that. Really, how hard can writing something be? Harder than you think!!

There is a very damaging and scary “F” word out there that we don’t like to talk about. Do you know what it is?
That would be the word Fail. I don’t like to talk about my failures, do you? I didn’t think so. On the whole no one likes to talk about, draw attention to, or even think about their own failures. Here’s the important thing to remember though: how you think about failure will define you just as much as how you define success will. Those people who steward failure well are going to be happier and more succesful. They will ultimately be the keepers of the future.
