  2. Immodesty and the Church

    July 20, 2010 by Britten Taylor

    I struggle with how to start this blog post. I have been writing and deleting, writing and deleting for about 10 minutes now. So I am just going to come out and say it, regardless of how blunt it sounds.
    There is an alarming number of Christian young ladies (and older ones at that) who are [...]

  3. Reflections from East Asia

    July 6, 2010 by Britten Taylor

    A blog post from one of our College Small Group Leaders on her Short-Term Global Trip to East Asia…

  4. The Blazing Center

    July 1, 2010 by Britten Taylor

    Just read this excerpt over at Desiring God Blog from John Piper. And after reading it, I went to the LORD in prayer and asked Him to allow each of our college students at Brook Hills to “see and savor the supremacy of His Son.” I have come to understand that this is key to [...]

  8. What is God’s will for my life?

    June 10, 2010 by Britten Taylor

    What is God’s will for my life?  Now that is a big question. And most Christ-following college students are right smack dab in the middle of wrestling with that question.
