Chapel Blog
Covenant just made a blog for the Chapel. I thought it was interesting, and I know some of you might like to know more about what goes on inside the walls of the chapel. Rather than me giving a little essay each time we have chapel (which I will still do at times), here’s a [...]

Six Brothers and Two Tents
My brothers and I started a new Codington tradition about a week or so ago - every year, we’re going to go on a camping trip for all the brothers. We went to Cloudland about two weekends ago… Wim drove up to Covenant in his buick around 9:30 p.m. on a Friday night, I piled into a [...]

Prince of Preachers
This is one of the most profound and inspiring quotes I have ever heard. I believe there is something to be said about a God who could instill such a desire in the heart of one of his followers.
I’m part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have the Holy Spirit power. The die has [...]

I Peter 5:6-7
School work and stress seem to come hand in hand. It’s kind of like a direct relationship - an increase in school brings an increase in stress (ok, maybe not as a blanket rule… just speaking from my own experience). This morning was rough. One of the most stressful and frustrating things for me is not [...]

Prayerful Purity
“Prayer acknowledges that we cannot achieve our own purity.” ~ unknown
My mom handed me a piece of paper with that quote on it before I left home this past weekend. “Just think about this sometime,” she said.

Franklin, TN
I went home for the weekend to spend some time with my family… mainly for Betsy’s birthday last week. It was so beautiful and relaxing being home. We left around lunchtime on Saturday, got home around 2:00 p.m., and by 3:30 p.m. I was out on 200 acres of land squirrel hunting with my brother-in-law [...]

To Kill a Black Widow…
Based on a true story and told in the first person by Betsy, by Philip Codington…
It was a late Tuesday night. I had just returned from a long ten hour closing shift at Panera Bread, and I was beat. I rolled into the driveway around 11:00 p.m., opened the garage door, turned off my headlights, and [...]
