I've moved to Wordpress!

I've made the switch to a different blog hosting site. If you get to the site using www.thegodzwas.com, you will be redirected automatically, but if you have this page bookmarked, here's the replacement. There are a few videos that have yet to be uploaded to my Wordpress site so if you want to reminisce, you can still get to this site by typing in http://collegiatechronicles.blogspot.com.

Just one of the reasons I love the A/G!


In the front room of our apartment sits a little yellow plastic barrel that gets filled up with spare change.

It hard to imagine that spare change amounting to much, but because of a whole lot of donations from boy and girls from all over Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia, we have a brand new Dell LCD projector! Thanks kids for helping us broadcast the widescreen gospel message @ AU and thanks for sending a check instead of all those quarters.

One of our small group leaders told me about a conversation with Bill (not his real name). Bill had been turned off to organized religion a long time ago, by a grade school teacher. But because of the a number of different things that college life brought out, he began to explore Christianity for the first time. He got involved with a small group and became more excited about the Jesus he was reading about and experiencing in the relationships there. Last Tuesday night, Bill stayed after small group and talked with his leaders about taking the next step. After it was explained he said, "I would be glad to do that!" With that, Bill prayed to begin his relationship with Jesus. That is what it's all about!
