— Life at Bethel
The first half of this week was Deeper Life Conference at Bethel. We had chapel twice Monday and Tuesday (normally we only have one on Monday, Wednesday, Friday). There was a speaker named Les Beauchamp that gave talks for all of the chapels. One of my favorite parts about chapel at Bethel is they bring [...]

— Life at Bethel
We have about 4 weeks of classes left, which seems crazy! It is now time to schedule classes and start planning for next semester. This is a little hectic because at the same time I have to finish projects and papers for this semester at the same time. Luckily I have a good adviser and [...]

No class Friday!
March 19, 2012
— Life at Bethel
Every once in a while a professor will be sick or have a conference to go to. Today both my classes I had were cancelled, so I get an extra day to my weekend! It is really nice to be able to have a break, especially since it is so nice out. I’ve been playing [...]

Nice weather!

— Life at Bethel
The weather is getting really nice here which is strange for this time of year. I love it because there is so much more to do outside and it just puts me in a good mood. We have started playing sand volleyball again and I also played tennis ball golf around the campus. Since it [...]

Being sick

— Life at Bethel
This week was my first time being really sick away from home. I had the stomach flu, and was really bad for one day. That day I had to miss all three of my classes which I was a little worried about because I had quizzes in all of them. I was really grateful and [...]

Pilot Olympics
February 20, 2012
— Life at Bethel
Today it was extremely nice out, well at least for the middle of February! Because of that I was able to spend a lot of time outside playing on Bethel’s outdoor basketball courts and also played some Ultimate Frisbee on the intramural field. This was great for me because I’m not a fan of winter [...]

Weekends at Bethel

— Life at Bethel
I enjoy a weekend at Bethel more than I would at home most times. While it is good to spend time at home every once in a while, I like being here and being able to hang out with my friends. Also there are normally basketball games on Saturday which are fun to watch. While [...]

Dude Week
February 6, 2012
— Life at Bethel
This past week in my dorm, Oakwood, was Dude Week. Basically, we had an “electronic fast” from video games, computers (other than homework), and tv and movies. Most people, especially guys would not enjoy the thought of this. However, this week was a blast! We had lots of activities throughout the week. To name a few we [...]

— Life at Bethel
WCAC stands for World Christian Action Conference, which we had at Bethel this past week. We had a couple of really good guest speakers for chapel, and also had chapel more often than we do in a normal week. I loved this week because God has really given me a heart for the world. It [...]

Bethel does a good job of hosting events throughout the year at local businesses and on campus. This week they hosted bowling at a local bowling alley! We got unlimited bowling for the whole night for only TWO bucks!!! I went with my hall, and it was a lot of fun, even though I’m not the best bowler. [...]

It is crazy to think that I have completed one semester and am started on my second already. With this new semester came new classes, new professors, and new activities.

Back to school
January 16, 2012
— Life at Bethel
Coming back to school after a break can be a tough adjustment. Luckily for me I only had three classes this week because the other ones got cancelled! I had a good break and it was great to be home. With that being said it was crazy how much I missed Bethel and all my [...]

Winter at Bethel
December 12, 2011
— Life at Bethel
I’m not a big fan of winter. However, Bethel has made my winters more enjoyable. We just got our first real snow, and with that came snowball fights with friends which is a lot of fun. I’m sure we will do lots of other fun things with snow once we get a good amount of [...]

So this week we went to Goodwill and all of us picked up some craaazzzy sweaters, which was an adventure in itself. Once we all got our [...]

I feel like I really have been blessed with an awesome group of guys in my hall. We are always doing stuff together, whether it is playing basketball, games, eating at the DC, or having our Tuesday night devotions. Every Tuesday night our hall has devotions. For a while we were getting sidetracked easily, but the last [...]

This past week the annual Oakwood vs Manges football game was held. Oakwood and Manges are the two biggest male dorms on campus (Oakwood is pretty much all freshmen, and is where I live). This is a tackle game with no pads. It is also a game that Oakwood has never won, that is until [...]

Intramural sports are a great way to get involved here at Bethel. There are tons of different sports to choose from and it is good to get to know more people. The intramural volleyball tournament just finished. My team got third in the tournament, but got first in the season. It was cool because our [...]
