Merry Christmas as we celebrate the birth of Jesus, who brings hope, forgiveness of our sins, and salvation to us. May the blessings of the Christ child be with you today and always.

The other day, a colleague, Andy Stout, forwarded an article written in Men’s Health that certainly made me re-read it a second time. Icing is no longer a correct response to an injury where swelling and inflammation is the body’s immediate response. R.I.C.E (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) was a solid foundational skill taught in my Care and Prevention of Athletic Injuries class at Concordia Nebraska. It has been a staple response by doctors, hospital personnel, school nurses, athletic trainers, coaches, dads, and moms since 1978.

As an English teacher, it’s basically a given that I love books. I find books to be an opportunity to step into a new, unique world with people that intrigue me. Being a voracious reader, my mind is always quick to take the vivid descriptions of settings and character appearances and build a pretty good picture of what is happening.

I came across a book this past summer titled “Live to Forgive,” written by Jason Romano.

Often, when I am in conversation with others, whether at church, some extra-curricular event, or perhaps an event like Discover Concordia Night, someone will ask “How’s the year going?” Since my life is heavily wrapped up in formal education, I often take a minute to reflect on the academic year, as opposed to the calendar year.

A 1992 graduate of Concordia Lutheran High School, Matthew Dellinger, Chief Warrant Officer in the Michigan National Guard, will present to students about his career on Nov. 18.

Can you hear them? Do you see them? They are coming! Those wonderful, special, endearing, stressful, pressure filled, exhausting, and expensive holidays. We love them. We hate them.

In this season of giving thanks for all that God has blessed us with, I often humm one of my favorite songs, All Good Gifts, from the musical Godspell.

Boy! The year is flying by quickly. We are a month away from the end of the first semester. As we near the end, here are a few tips for both current families and incoming families for 2020-2021.

Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) can open students' eyes to one of the wonders of God’s marvelous creation: the human body. Meticulous, multi-stepped, well-designed processes give us an inside view of the mind of God. We can see how He crafted human life to function on a daily basis.
