About me

Gender Male
Industry Student
Occupation Taking notes while feeling stupid
Introduction I am 23 years old and preparing for a lifetime of pastoral ministry. Currently, I am a student who is enjoying delving into the depths of biblical and theological scholarship. I am too much of a man to not enjoy a good action movie, but am too little of a man to not love a great musical (or be in one for that matter).
Interests I am an avid reader and if you want to peak my interest all you need to do is start talking Bible or theology. My passion is to see kingdoms fall as God's Kingdom breaks in, be those kingdoms personal or national.
Favorite Movies Bridge to Terabithia, The Last Samurai, Prince Caspian, Newsies, Kingdom of Heaven, Pan's Labrynith, Runaway Jury
Favorite Music Casting Crowns, Mercy Me, Bethany Dillon, Switchfoot, Kutless, showtunes (so shoot me... not really)
