Poop
Stinks...but UNChapel Doesn't!!! |
Written by Michan Myer
Inviting and downright cool music swelled from the
library auditorium Thursday evening, luring students away from the catatonic
stare of too much studying-and calling them to lay down their books to let
loose with the Lord for a while. The
dimly lit auditorium had a campfire-like peace to it as students "rubbed some
funk on" classic worship like "Awesome God" and let their dry bones be
refreshed as they sang to our "Amazing God." Students entered with backpacks and Starbucks
cups in tow and had a chance to "get real" for a change. ( Read more) |
I
Thought You Were My Friend!

 By
Robyn Bera Oh
sweet, smooth, Caramel Macchiato - I thought you were my friend. Sticky banana
nut muffins and warm White Chocolate Mochas - I thought you were my friends
too. Spicy foamy Chai Tea Latte with tangy lemon wedges - why have you betrayed
me so? As the pounds silently creep on, and the years pass by, I realize that
yesterday's friends are today's villains. ( Read more)

Turkey or Chicken?
|
By Dr. Bill Ventura
This Thanksgiving, eat turkey but think like a chicken.
Now that I have your attention, allow me to explain what
I'm thinking. I've been fascinated with Chick-fil-A for the last 10 years. The
food is great (I prefer the chick'n strips salad) but even more interesting is
the culture that the founder, Truett Cathy has created and his two sons, Dan
and Bubba continue to uphold. Those that are familiar with the organization
know that the lights are off and the doors are locked on Sundays. Yes, that's
right, a nationwide, quick-service restaurant actually closes one day each week
in part to honor the Sabbath and to give employees a day to rest. Closing one
day per week has little effect on the bottom line; Chick-fil-A is on track to gross
close to $3 billion in 2009. (Read more)

Finding My Running Stride
|
By Julie Woodruff
Few things in life are as attractive to me as my blue Adidas running
shoes and a trail of black asphalt. Anyone who is a runner knows what I am
talking about. Hitting the open road and chasing fresh air has a certain
gratification to it. I have not been running much lately, but my last run was a
few weeks ago. It was on the treadmill, because it was too dark to run outside.
I watched my feet one by one as they walked below me on the rattling black
belt. My lungs started to wince and my ankles reminded me that they were tired
and were not in the mood to work hard. I often ask myself why I love a good run
especially when it hurts my body so much. But I know why. It is the feeling of
the finish line. (Read more)

Snow, Snow, Snow
|
By Michelle Echterling
Even
though most Regent students are still experiencing fall, in northern Canada, where I
am presently, it is showing signs of winter. Fall has come and gone and winter
has begun. Snow is in the forecast and even freshly covering the streets. For us,
winter is here. Curled up in my hotel room and looking out of my frosted window
I sipped some steaming hot chocolate. I soaked in all that I could from this
winter wonderland outside of my window. Watching the big snowflakes fall and
cover every little thing, I remembered the first time that I saw snow. (Read more)
