In her own words
She sheds down raindrops they fall Gathers herself but she crawls Alone with no shelter she calls Hear me, hear me Cries from the distant we hear So gather our ears then we’ll see The lonely as vast as the sea Hear me, hear me… Wounds that cut deep to the heart Bleeding, a sign … Continue reading »
Like you mean it
Preach like you mean it Where we can see veins Visible when you speak Where you hit the pulpit With karate like reflexes Where you sweat like Niagara falls Consumed by your passionate pools Ecstatic Where your charisma goes over dramatic In a good way to stress a point Amen Preach like you mean it … Continue reading »

The Gospel in the Key of Minor: Contextualizing the Gospel to a Cynical Generation
Note: This was the last paper I wrote upon completing my bachelors degree in Theology. This one, although being the standard boring papers that probably no one would read, is one that has some sort of emotional attachment when I wrote it. Probably one of the favorite paper I wrote.

Self-deception
