Grateful for the opportunity to serve as the team chaplain for the Bloomington Bison this year!

This season was about relationships and planting seeds — sharing life together through family meals, holiday celebrations, practices, conversations, challenges, celebrations, and our weekly chapel. It’s been a privilege to walk alongside this group of players, coaches, staff, and families.

Our heart all season has been to engage — not just as teammates or coworkers, but as people willing to genuinely know and care for one another. 1 Thessalonians 2:8 says, “Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well.” That verse has shaped so much of what this season has meant.

I’m thankful for every conversation, every prayer, every laugh, and every moment of growth we’ve shared together spiritually and personally. God has been faithful, and I’m better because of the people He allowed me to serve alongside this year.

Thank you, Bison family, for letting me share life with you this season. Excited to see all that’s ahead!

What an opportunity to be encouraged and challenged by these seniors at their final FCA huddle! Grateful for each one of them (and all of our senior students) and all of our coaches who are ministering to hearts and souls.

On Tuesday morning, Annie Hadden gave her last FCA lesson of the year. This group has truly been blessed to have her helping lead others in their faith this year. A huge thanks to the Eldredge Family for providing an amazing breakfast spread as well!

The last FCA of the school year will be this coming Tuesday at 7:30 AM and led for the last time by Colton Sheppard. All HS/JH students are welcome.
