Spring Banquet

Tonight is Spring Banquet at Covenant. Every spring, we have a big dinner and dance down in Chattanooga. The last few years it’s been hosted at the Hunter Museum of Amercan Art.

Spring Time

I pulled out the shorts and flip-flops today. It felt so amazing outside. Nothing beats the start of spring on the mountain. It’s so incredibly beautiful. I’ve had dinner outside the last two nights… just eating, relaxing with friends, talking, and enjoying being at Covenant. It’s nice to be able to appreciate where you go to [...]

Day of Prayer

It’s Day of Prayer today at Covenant. Classes are canceled for the day, and we have a chance to rest, do some extra studying, and spend time in prayer. I had a really restful morning so far… I slept in until 9:00 a.m., which was definitely a first for me in a long time. I [...]

Homecoming Weekend

This past weekend was Homecoming at Covenant. My family was going to come up for the weekend but ended up not coming because my grandparents were out of town. But it was an awesome weekend - it was cool to see a lot of alumni faces who knew my parents or my older siblings. And besides [...]

Wednesday

It’s a Wednesday evening, and just like any other Wednesday evening, I’m tired and feeling rather unmotivated. After a good 5 hours of solid classes this morning and this afternoon, I’m wiped out. This week has been fairly slow though in terms of tests and papers.. a short two-page paper was all that i’ve had [...]
