"Oh, this is the start of something good. Don't you agree?"

And what better words to start our little blog here with with those of the amazingly talented Gavin DeGraw. I hope you guys read this from time to time, and take a little something out of it with you. In the coming months, I really feel that we have what it takes to grow our little class into something special: an encouraging place in a discouraging world. Everywhere we turn, we are told what we can't do and what were unworthy of. I hope you all know that with our Savior, our Rock, we shouldn't have to worry about that worldly discouragement we face daily. But it always helps to, as Paul says (the Beatle of course, not the saint) to "have a little help from our friends." Over the course of this blogs lifetime, we'll laugh, we'll cry; but more importantly, I hope I can encourage you and in turn I hope you all can encourage each other. I look forward to taking this journey together and hope you all enjoy the ride.
