So it’s been a while
It’s been a while since I’ve been here to blog. I haven’t had much to write about, but I thought I just give a quick update to the few who actually read my stuff. I’m very thankful for you all by the way I hope when you read some of it you are encouraged in Christ Jesus the author and finisher of our faith!
For the past 3 weeks I’ve been the Assistant Dorm Supervisor of the only mens dorm at Northland International University (NIU). I don’t really have much of an opinion about the job itself yet because it has been until this past Saturday that most of the guys got in the dorm. I’m not gonna lie, the first week was every bit of a spiritual battle for me. I’m pretty confident that the devil was on attack in my heart and in my mind sowing doubt and discontent and unbelief. But God who is rich in mercy used His word and the word of others to strengthen my heart and get my focus off of myself and onto the Cross. Christ has me here for a reason and I’m excited to be in the will of the Father!
The first three weeks were filled with meetings on philosophy of NIU. It has been great to meet and interact with the faculty of NIU. Filled with encouragement, love, and compassion for others, it was hard to not give God the glory for what He is doing here. Life touching life has always been the theme here at Norhtland and still is.
I’m still learning what it means to be the Assistant Dorm Supervisor, seeing that I’ve never lived in the dorms before, but to be honest, it’s not much different from living the christian life, Loving God and Loving others! I’m just getting paid for it:)
Anywho I’m still learning my way around and learning the people but it’s been a joy to see God at work.

Quentin: You will do well in your position. Uncle Bobby and I will pray for you as you learn the ins and outs – the hardest part will probably be that you are not much older than the students and you are in charge….. Love you. Aunt Kathy
