How to Make Your Joy Gigantic

2024-11-03T22:54:34-05:00

HOW TO MAKE YOUR JOY GIGANTIC What's the biggest thing you've ever seen? When I lived in Houston, I visited NASA's Johnson Space Center and saw the enormous Independence Space Shuttle—an entire shuttle sitting atop a Boeing 757! Yet even that pales compared to the Eagle Nebula. Six trillion miles from top to bottom, this vast collection of gas, stars, and stardust stretches our understanding of size and scope.

GET YOUR GLORY RIGHT

2024-09-05T16:45:01-04:00

GET YOUR GLORY RIGHT: Three Ways to Glorify God this School Year The theme for our 40th school year is ‘40 for His Glory.’ I have spent a lot of time thinking and reading about what it looks like to do something for God’s glory. One of my great childhood memories is rooting for Michael Jordan. His excellence at the game of basketball was part mesmerizing and part inspiring. If I wasn’t obsessively watching him play, I was trying to emulate him in how I played. The combination of being mesmerized by transcendence and inspired to action is not just [...]

How will you spend these moments right now? That's the question Seth Fitchett, IRCS Class of 2026, addressed to IRCS students, family members, and supporters at our inaugural Convocation ceremony.
