Like every other Christian, I have heard the story of Abraham and Isaac many times. I have listened to pastors preach about Abraham’s obedience and unwavering faith in God as he prepared to kill his son. And often, I have wondered what Isaac thought as this happened. I wondered if he fought back or if he was mentally and emotionally effected by his own father trying to kill him. I have wondered if this event made him angry with a God that was supposed to love him and care for him. I have even…

“Isaac and History of Jocassee” There are so many ways to look at the character Isaac. Isaac is the son of Amy Holcombe and raised as the son of Billy Holcombe, but is Holland Winchester’s son. Everyone in town can tell that Isaac is the son of Holland Winchester. Isaac is even asked by many people in the community if he is a Winchester. There is only one way to truly consider this and decide what you need to learn. First, I must look and see why Ron Rash chose the characters he did in his…

Joan Mitchell’s Chamonix 1962 painting appears to be a mess at first glance; paint violently pushed across canvas, no focal point and seemingly just no point to this piece. However, by giving a name to this abstract mess, we are able to begin to use our imagination to begin to see shapes take form to see that Mitchell has made an abstraction of a French mountain and it is our job as a viewer to use our minds to make a story of her canvas. Mitchell’s 200 by 217.2cm canvas overtakes your vision…

The snow crunched beneath my feet as I walked onto the chairlift the wind howled and I shivered as the snow went down my back, the lift shuddered to life and started climbing up the face of the mountain, near the top I started strapping the Burton snowboard to my feet I turned to the right of me and saw two Swedish skiers who must have been on vacation it was odd because Sweden has a lot of snow so I asked them if they spoke English and they either couldn't hear me or didn't understand me and…

my body hitting the ground during my first time snow skiing. Splash! That is the sound of my body hitting the water over and over again as I am trying to learn how to water ski for the first time. I have recently had the privilege to be able to experience both water skiing and snow skiing. I was able to learn how to water ski for the first time this last summer; I went snow skiing for the first time this winter. Even though they have similar names, they are each unique and different from each…

P. one of these things is skiing. A few ski hills that overlook the water are Mount Bohemia, Indianhead Mountain, and the Porcupine Mountains Ski Area. Indianhead Mountain is a small mountain but if you're looking for a good day on the slopes and a good view of Lake Superior this is a great option. Mount Bohemia is another great ski hill if you're looking for a little backcountry and tree skiing. The Porcupine Mountain ski area is a great kids friendly ski…

When it comes to faith, people are often exhorted to have the faith of Abraham, the father of three of the largest religions in the world. His story in Genesis is celebrated for his unyielding belief in God’s divine plan which is what sets him aside as a figure to which all can aspire. However, his actions and choices seem a bit questionable. God’s command to kill one’s own son is fundamentally unreasonable given the premise that God is all good, and Abraham’s willingness and lack of objection…

The Scriptures are meant to be taken in context and deeper meanings can be drawn when various stories are considered and connections are drawn between passages. This is often the case with New Testament readings in light of Old Testament readings in the Bible. In addition to revealing Jesus in control of his actions, the irony of Pontius Pilate’s words, and the universality of Jesus’ kingship, the description of the inscription on Jesus’ cross in John 19:16b-22 also exposes Jesus’ willingness…
