"Here I am. Send Me." A cool infographic on my vision for Central and William Penn.

After being inspired by Eric Rafferty and spending basically an entire day on the awesome piktograph.com, I completed this infographic for the vision God has given me for the next two years at Central and William Penn and my need for partners. I'm really proud of it!

7 Responses to the Misleading Hobby Lobby Aftermath

The Law is reason free from passion. - Aristotle I was very disturbed by the aftermath of the Hobby Lobby ruling yesterday, both from my friends on social media, from bloggers online, and from politicians with real power and influence. After I read the case and wrote a basic outline , I kept hearing people, over and over again, say things that simply were not true. There was a lot of passionate rhetoric that had no substance in reality. At best, this response is proof that our political discourse has truly devolved into ignorant soundbites that get the most clicks and votes, where truth is an afterthought. At worst, politicians and pundits are deliberately deceiving people to rile up your base and smear political opponents. It's probably a little bit of both.

The Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) was an act passed by a Democratic Congress in 1993 (and signed by Clinton) that reiterated religious protection of all "persons" by requiring that any law, even if applying to the general public, must not "substantially burden" one's religious convictions without being for a "compelling government interest" and using the "least restrictive means."

May Update: Leaving A Legacy and Launching Into The Future

So... May really flew by! Two weeks of finishing up at Drake, two weeks at a conference in Missouri, and all of a sudden it's June! I'm excited to share with you some of the great experiences I had with the grace of God and His people this month! Leaving A Legacy During the first two weeks of May, I ended my semester working at Drake as a volunteer staff. I briefly mentioned in my last update that I had finished June leading worship for the last time at Drake. It was a bittersweet moment, playing for the last time with two other seniors on the worship team, but finishing with a really fun night of worship and celebration.
