Most Christians have a favorite Bible verse. Usually, it’s a verse that saw them through a hard time, or one that they find particularly encouraging. Sometimes they use a verse out of context, but that’s a topic for a different post. Today, I’m going to share my top three favorite Bible verses. I chose three because I can’t really pick one over the other. Additionally, this list could easily change as I grow in Christ.

As I announced previously, the head writer and director of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Aaron Ehasz, is working alongside Justin Richmond on a new animated series for Netflix called The Dragon Prince. Season one was released on September 14th. While I finished the short (9 episodes to be exact) season within two days of its release, I haven’t had a chance to pen down my thoughts until now. So here goes….

Welp. I just finished my third week of school. The first two weeks were grueling, but labor day provided some much-needed time for reflection and catching up on other stuff. As everyone starts to settle into the rhythm of the school year, I have some thoughts I want to share with all my fellow students out there (yay internet!). Hopefully something in this post will help you, especially if your are feeling stressed out.

Two months later, the church was meeting regularly again. Jackson had found a balance between spreading the Gospel and being wise. He, Sophia, and Mr. Evans had managed to convert over a dozen people since the break-in, many of whom were children of the former members. A story had been published announcing that all the members of the church would be serving life sentences for conspiracy to commit treason. Mr.

Jackson was distraught for the rest of the day. He went through his classes without giving anything much thought. He went to work that afternoon, but his work was sub-par. He hoped to be encouraged when he went to the church meeting that night.
Jackson went back to the Longs’ house before the meeting to work on homework. He was exhausted and decided to take a short nap before going to church.

“Okay. What’s going on?” Sophia asked as Jackson closed his locker.
“What do you mean?” asked Jackson.
“First off, you’ve been acting weird the past few months, and since Monday Noah has been giving you dirty looks anytime he sees you.
“What do you mean ‘acting weird’?” asked Jackson.
“We’ve all noticed it. You don’t laugh at or make the same jokes anymore, you don’t talk about moral relativism, and don’t think I haven’t noticed that you sneak out of the house at weird times of night.

As promised, my minibook is available. Summer is almost over, and I wanted to make sure I had it done. In case you have no idea what I’m talking about, click here.
I am currently in the process of setting up a payment system (don’t worry, this book will always be free, I just want to make sure you can give back if you enjoy it). Until it is set up, you can download it here.

Jackson was a new person. He had been working hard before, but now he did it with a good attitude, knowing that he was doing his work “as unto the Lord.” He was attending the church meetings and reading his Bible regularly. He had been entrusted with the secret of how to get to the meetings. The map with the three X’s was the “tail” of the Ichthys symbol, which early Christians had used as a test to see if someone was a Christian.

I’ve been doing keto for roughly a month now and I am quite happy. I have not had as much of a performance drop as I thought I was going to have (although my ab workouts feel a bit more tiring). I noticed that I maintain muscle much easier now, even though Cross Country Season has officially started and I’m running six times a week. Over that time, I’ve tried several keto recipes, and I wanted to share them with you.

When Jackson got to his new job, Mr. Rallison was not there. He was assigned to shadow an experienced tutor named Timothy. He showed him how to talk to students of different ages, and he explained the procedures followed around the center. Work was to be done on time. It was expected that you would not have to be told to do something twice. You were to treat peers and students with respect.
