    Doubts about my salvation beginning at the age of seven: Growing up in the church, I heard Gospel invitations frequently, and I began to doubt whether or not I truly believed the Gospel or if I had simply prayed a prayer. I started to pray for salvation on a regular basis, but I never truly had peace about my standing with God. In time, this uncertainty led to spiritual stagnation, and because I did not effectively address my uncertainty early on, it continued to haunt me for many years.…

    When we are young we admire the great and cool things that teenagers are able to do, and all we want is to be teenagers. As the years would go by we would get more excited because our teen years were getting closer. However, when we finally reach those teenage years, we then suddenly wish we could be kids again. A teenager and a child both have their differences and similarities, but they are more different than we think; after all, they are two different ages.…

    When you are young you tend to just go along with whatever you are told to do and that was the case for me and church. I was too young to really understand what I was being taught during Sunday school so I was just there. By the time I was ten I was confused so I started to look at outside sources for more information.…

    Thinking back on it now, Alaska was an important part of my life, having lived there for the majority of the time I’ve been alive. The small town of Eagle River was a great place to live, even if it gets very cold in the winter. Since I’ve lived there for so long, I learned how to make my way around from Point A to Point B without much hassle and figured out how easily friends can come if you try. Where I lived in a neighborhood that wasn’t too far away from a safeway, so I could walk there and do some errands for my folks, and maybe do some shopping for myself as well. There was a park just across the way, which is where I spent most of my days if I wasn’t being a lazy nerd at my computer. If the summer wasn’t rainy, it…

    Finally, after all me going on about thing the last, and final thing that I can benefit for Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana is my life experiences. Sadly, though there really isn’t much to this part of my essay, I have been a sheltered child all throughout my life being on this Earth and just recently have I been taking steps outside of my sheltered zone and out into the real world, but technically speaking also that’s not entirely true. I have actually been many places and lived in many places, before I lived here in Worland, Wyoming, I lived in three different places, two being in the United States. I come from a Military, Air Force background, both my parents were in the Air Force both serving their country in many different…

    Being at the cottages feels like being home. I have had some of my best memories there, I remember the feeling so excited as I would jump along the rocky coast, scaring my mother half to death, but it being the best time of my life. And the water was always freezing, yet it never stopped me from running in just because I could. There is not any cell service or Wi-Fi at the cabins which was very nice. It meant we were able to do family activities, like a game night or going out to dinner, without being…

    I was raised a Christian, my father’s side more devout in their faith then my mothers. I was baptized in the Presbyterian Church in Laramie, Wyoming. I was around six months old. As a child I went to Sunday school, sometimes because I had to, sometimes because I wanted to. This continued until I was old enough to have other activities that conflicted. Because I had first hand experience within the Latter Day Saint culture while briefly living in Utah, religion always had a certain allure to it. While in Utah my sense of wonderment towards Christianity seemed to diminish while my skepticism of all religion increased. In my jaded beliefs it is no longer fair to call myself…

    Life in Kansas. Well, it’s life, but in Kansas. If I ever talk to someone from another state or anywhere else they always say something about it being flat, even though I never thought it was flat because there are the beautiful Flint Hills of Kansas that are not flat at all. Also, if I ever travel outside of Kansas and somebody knows I am from Kansas they will say “I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore” as some kind of joke, it’s a given. The Flint Hills are absolutely stunning and it is my favorite thing to see when I’m traveling to Kansas City.…

    Towards the middle of summer 2014, my family and I took our first “faith-cation” to Fort Worth, Texas, so that all of us could attend the Southwest Believer’s Convention. The Southwest Believer’s Convention is a special convention and opportunity for people of all ages to strengthen their faith and relationship with God. For a total of six days, three church services were held daily. Me being 14 years old at the time, I had no idea what the convention would be like. During my stay, the convention provided me with the blessing of making new friends with four people named Abe, Ana, Daphne, and Elizabeth.…
