My PhD Journey

Hello! I wanted to give you a little update on the progress of this project up to this point. I am attending Liberty University for my PhD in History and am doing this completely online. Which means that I have a full time job (40+ hours a week), volunteer with my local fire department, AND have a family plus a farm. There is this thing called SLEEP. I don’t know if you’ve heard of it or not, but it is the most wonderful thing! I am lucky if I am able to pull out three – four hours of sleep a night but I signed up for this! One day, I’ll find SLEEP and be able to enjoy it! Ha ha!

There are officially three more blogs to create for this class. The are on Christianity in America, Genealogy, and Collaborative Research. While I only have a couple of blog posts to create for this class, I do have videos to create each week. The videos I’ve created so far have dealt with how Hollywood has portrayed history. Below are the links and description of each video for my class.

The video I created last night/early this morning is all about the Sons of Liberty and primary sources. It is a project created for a history professor teaching American History I, but I liked the idea too much not to share it!

Here are the links to my current videos.
