Richard A. Allen, Jr.

You can simply call me “Rick.”

I’ve always been a communicator of ideas, primarily through teaching (the Anglo-Saxon side of my family) and artistry (the Italian side of my family).

I want my audience to pause and ponder the significance of things by capturing their attention and drawing them deeper into a concept to find something meaningful. I correlate this to my relationship with God. He captured my attention, then guided me into a relationship with Jesus Christ where I found profound meaning.

My contributions here will generally fall into two categories: Bible Stuff (study and contemplation of God’s word) and World Stuff (study and contemplation of current events and ideas). I welcome your comments and questions about current blog material, as well ideas for future blogs.
