Come ALIVE.: March 2011
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 8, 2011. How Do You Poke The Box? So I'm reading a new book out by author and blogger Seth Godin. Called "Poke the Box." He speaks about initiating. Projects rather than just thinking of ideas and reacting. It's a concise, inspiring book that is quick to read. It motivates and encourages that inner part of you that wants to do something worth doing, that wants to change something worth changing. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Come ALIVE.: On The Subject Of God...
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2010/07/on-subject-of-god.html
Tuesday, July 13, 2010. On The Subject Of God. God" is not a subject. I heard a nun once say, "When I was with my family one time, we were talking about God, and my godfather said, 'Is God the only subject we can talk about here? So I looked at him and said, 'God is not a subject, He's a person! I think the nun has a point. But I would like to take that point further. God is indeed a person, but He is more than that because He is God. God is, in fact, the only "subject" that really matters. So what are w...

Come ALIVE.: F&M III: Social Media
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2010/10/f-iii-social-media.html
Monday, October 18, 2010. F&M III: Social Media. Everyone reading this is actively using social media. Most of you have clicked on this from your own social media platform (i.e. Facebook, Blogger, etc.), but have we really thought about this idea of social media? Have we accurately and effectively gaged the impact and proper use of it? Overusing media - it's about how. We use it. It's not enough to say that you don't put up questionable pictures on your Facebook. What do you put in your statuses? In this...

Come ALIVE.: It's A Beautiful Life
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2011/01/its-beautiful-life.html
Thursday, January 13, 2011. It's A Beautiful Life. It crazy to think of how terrified I am to truly fall in love. It will change me and my life forever, yet that's exactly what we all crave, right? The daring, the new. Despite how much we believe we hate change, we desperately want the thrill and satisfaction of encountering the new, the unknown, and embracing it, facing it. Falling in love is terrifying, but so is waking up tomorrow and living the same routine of today. Great Post. and so honest! I also...

Come ALIVE.: Love Is Real, Love Is Here
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2010/06/love-is-real-love-is-here.html
Thursday, June 24, 2010. Love Is Real, Love Is Here. My good friend Alissa inspires me. In fact, she has inspired me since I met her exactly 2 years and 10 months ago. You see, 2 years and 10 months ago, I was fine. I loved my life and I was excited to be at college in Ohio, away from where I would have been in California. There were many such beacons of light, but this one was different. Alissa was different. Her light radiated outward like many of the others, except that hers also radiated to me. Witho...

Come ALIVE.: Heaven Come Down
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2011/02/heaven-come-down.html
Tuesday, February 15, 2011. We stood in the dark, our feet in the cool sand. Bundled in sweatshirts though it was the middle of the summer, both of us stayed silent, listening to the breeze and the crashing waves. I love the beach at night," I said to my sister. Me too. It reminds me of heaven.". I looked at her, looked back out at the ocean, trying to make out the dark horizon line, and agreed. Which would you choose? Which is NEW for me.

Come ALIVE.: Faith & Media
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2010/08/faith-media.html
Tuesday, August 10, 2010. Over the course of the next 4 months, I will write a series on "Faith and Media.". So far, I have used this as a personal blog/journal to talk about spiritual matters, but I believe we need to acknowledge the significant impact of our media culture and face its implications head-on. As Christians, we are called to read the "signs of the times". And "go and preach to all nations.". And entirely detached, knowledgeable of the faith. And nonjudgmental of others, defenders of Truth.

Come ALIVE.: Extraordinary...
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2010/05/extraordinary_25.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. I believe that inside each of us is a strong desire to do something great with our lives, to follow ideals, to refuse the heavy weight of mediocrity, to courageously commit ourselves to humbly and patiently improve ourselves and society, making the world more human. Never let that small flame burn out. What a thought, to think that that's possible. Doing something great and following ideals doesn't necessarily include being widely known for it. However, it does.

Come ALIVE.: Come ALIVE!
http://epsmits.blogspot.com/2010/10/come-alive.html
Thursday, October 21, 2010. With a renewed sense of purpose, I have completely redesigned my blog! Through some reflection that resulted from solitude and sickness, I have realized that being encouraging. Do not just help us become more positive, they literally help us come ALIVE. Hence, the rebirth of this blog. So step out of yourself - out of misery, despair, distraction, sorrow, apathy, narcissism, mediocrity - and discover your true self. Experience the freedom in truly coming alive.
