Faith: What We Are Doing - Deciphering MAIP
A half-marathon
A Mad Men-based reality show produced by Donald Trump
A dating service
The common term for an itch on inside of your elbow
The above is a basic, though incomplete, list of things MAIP definitely is not.

Matt: Branching Out
This weekend me and my new group of intern friends made the hour long trip from Decatur to Athens; Home of the Dawgs and a wonderful concert series called Athfest. After a tour of the north campus and Sanford Stadium it’s easy to see why people love it there. The indie town was a hub of new, strange music as well as some great bars and restaurants. The Copper Creek Brewing Company, KEBA and...

Anticipation
Weeks and weeks of waiting have finally gotten me to this point. I’ve been in Atlanta since Friday afternoon and today I finally saw the building where I’ll be working! It’s gorgeous and looks like the type of place I can see myself working. Gonna turn in early tonight and make sure I get to work on time in the morning!
TO BE EARLY IS TO BE ON TIME. TO BE ON TIME IS LATE. TO BE...
