A Return to Seminary!

Written on May 23, 2023 – 6:10 pm | by admin |

Hello friends! It’s been yet another couple of years since I updated my blog. It’s a casualty of a busy life and simpler social media posting (such as on Facebook or Instagram). However, it’s also because there really is not any major news to report most of the time. However, I do have something new […]

I am pleased to report that after a year of waiting, praying, seeking and hoping, God has finally brought a new change that I feel will be an amazing change. I have been working with my current employer for almost two years. They were the best company to scoop me up when Chesapeake released me […]

It was easily the longest possible wait that I have ever experienced in any career move, but as of Jan. 13, 2015, I am officially an Adjunct Instructor, Cybersecurity at Liberty University Online (LUO).

A New Spiritual Challenge

Written on August 25, 2014 – 11:10 am | by dave |

It appears as though I am on the verge of yet another spiritual growth challenge. As anyone who has read my blog much would know, I once attended Liberty University as I attempted to get my Master of Divinity. I ultimately did not complete this degree because the cost of the degree would never pay […]

10 Years Later – An Answered Prayer

Written on July 29, 2014 – 2:42 pm | by dave |

July 23, 2014 at 10:53AM, God answered a prayer that my wife and I have been praying about for over 10 years. On July 23, 2014 at 10:53, my biological daughter was born. Two minutes later, my biological son was born. This may not seem like much to some people but to our family, it […]

I recently got the opportunity to have a rare date night with my wife and we chose to watch “God’s Not Dead” and I am glad we did. I am not going to spend a long amount of time discussing the movie because there are plenty of sites that offer reviews. What I can tell […]

Gods words, not mine

Written on July 25, 2013 – 1:39 pm | by dave |

It’s been some time since I posted here, been very busy with things not related to spiritual growth and that’s been part of the problem. I am going through my MS in Cybersecurity from University of Maryland, University College (UMUC) which is pretty demanding. I have always liked the field of cyber security but it […]
