There are certain milestones in the life of young people as they make the change from being an irresponsible youth to a mature adult. Weddings are one of those milestones, first jobs are another. Our son Daniel just completed on of those, graduation from college. In a very nice ceremony Daniel received his degree in elementary education and intercultural studies from Indiana Wesleyan University.

Sibling rivalry to the bitter end! |

The speaker at the ceremony was Harold Smith, president and CEO of Christianity Today International. His very timely and pointed remarks challenged the graduates to help bring back civility into the realm of public dialogue and to never allow their sense of curiosity to dry up. My sense of pride welled up into a few tears as my son walked across the stage and received his empty folder (the diplomas will be mailed out). God has been gracious to him and I know that he will continue to lead Daniel as he goes down the path of life following God’s will for him.
