Forgot to mention, check out these guys. They’re two Catholics walking across America to raise awareness about living the Christian life. They’re praying for the people they meet along the way. Please keep them in your prayers. This is the kind of thing I’ve dreamt about doing since I was a kid. Jon & Jesse [...]

No time for a long post this week, as I have three shows at two different schools on the Eastern Shore tomorrow, and have a 6 am call. I should have hit the hay half an hour ago. I do children’s theatre with Children’s Theater Association, and tomorrow is Maryland, My Maryland, our show about [...]

I’ve fallen behind in my reading plans for Oxford, but that’s okay, because none of them are required. I’ve finished re-reading the Gospels, and will move on to re-reading the rest of the New Testament. I haven’t read any new theology books on my list, but next up is Davies’ and Rogerson’s The Old Testament [...]

I’ve been thinking a lot this week about my Oxford application process, particularly in regards to my choice of Oxford college. When you apply, you apply to a particular college, not to the University itself. I was overwhelmed by my choices. In addition to the dozen or so colleges that offered Philosophy and Theology, the [...]

I shot a concept poster for the upcoming independent feature film The Fellowship, which follows a small band of Lord of the Rings gamers on a quest that teaches them there’s a little bit of geek – and hero – in all of us. I modeled as Squirrelly, the Samwise Gamgee character. Check out the [...]
