New Embedded Video

I feel good about my new video about learning spanish. The benefit a video like this would have in the classroom is that it incorporates humor with a small amount of knowledge. Perhaps more knowledge would be better, but the humor would definitely grab the attention of the students!

Enjoy some spanish

Learn some spanish!

Gospel Connections

I titled this blog Gospel Connections not because of the inherent connections between blogging and the Gospel, but rather because of the opportunity blogging presents of becoming connected to other people. Personally, I'm a bit wary of the internet and it's ability to "connect" us to the world. I find face to face interactions to be much more satisfying and fulfilling, but that being said I can't ignore the positive implications of the internet. With the internet more and more people can connect with each other and share experiences and support. I don't believe that this should replace "real life" interaction with others, but I think that it can certainly add to it. This church is found in many nations of the earth and the fact that I can chat with members from around the world, some of whom I met on my mission, is something I must thank Al Gore for...so thanks Al and thanks to the internet!
