Tack alla lärare!
Så här i skolavslutningstider... Dagens text är en hyllning till en yrkesgrupp som trots dåligt lön, ökade motgångar och större ansvarskrav tappert kämpar vidare för att bygga upp Sveriges framtid.

I was listening to the radio the other week, and I heard one of the DJ's say that she neither smoked nor … Continue reading Take Control (1): Be the Captain
Help Thou My Unbelief
Last week I taught a few Institute of Religion classes at Bolliaden, a Young Adult conference in the Church. The theme of the conference was Walking on the Straight Path. The students brought a good spirit and the participation level was high. Like I often say, I feel privileged to teach in such settings, especially … Continue reading Help Thou My Unbelief
Big Pictures and Sacrifices
