Andy Konigsmark vs. Alex Rai: Preacher vs. Teacher

Date February 12, 2008

Last night’s episode of American Gladiators was a heartbreaking one for me. Obviously, you could probably guess that my good buddy Andy didn’t make it to the finals.

We collaborated on a Presbytery youth event called Hyperthermia, and got to know each other then. He came up to Whitworth University with me and [...]

We became a one car family.
Sarah and I went to one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to: Billy Joel in Atlanta.
We experienced one of Atlanta’s [...]
