Hey all! Thanks for coming to my blog. My name is Jeremy Bixler and I currently live and work in the Kansas City metropolitan area. Christ and the Church are essential parts of my life and make up foundational aspects of my identity. I graduated from Olivet Nazarene University in 2008 and enjoyed it enough to stay a little longer and get a second degree there! I have both a Bachelor of Science and Master of Arts in Youth Ministry. Yes, I am passionate about our youth and desire to connect them with the story of Christ and allow Him to powerfully impact their lives. On the side, I volunteer with the youth ministry of Kansas City First Church of the Nazarene and spend some great times with some awesome young people there. I hope this can be a good place to interact with others and try to faithfully and eloquently (not sure about that second part!) explain my thoughts on life and faith.
