Wadsworth Tells All in Exclusive Interview



Everyone has a story. Every day we walk past hundreds of stories still being told; we get but a glimpse of ongoing narratives, but we also have the chance to become part of them. Our teachers, whether we like it or not, are integral pieces of our own stories. But how often do we get to hear theirs? We sat down with one teacher, Mr. Wadsworth, to see how God has been writing his narrative. 

Mr. Wadsworth grew up in an atheist household. When he headed off to college he “got involved with as much as he could,” which included attending gatherings for OCF (Otterbein Christian Fellowship). He had always been frustrated by the lack of answers that a philosophical naturalist worldview provided, but as he continued meeting with this group of Christians he found his answers and, ultimately, his faith. Of course, faith is a journey that doesn’t end, so he has been discovering more and more of God through the subjects he teaches (Calculus and Physics).


Mr. Wadsworth is one of many stories God has been faithful to tell according to his will. Unlike the traditional story though, life’s conflicts never fully resolve themselves. God, as always, will continue to work through Mr. Wadsworth until his tale comes to that most glorious end: eternity with the Father.

Sportsmanship and the kingdom of God were revealed this soccer season for a well thought out game against a special team.

Isaac Deskins, with the help of Robyn Goettler, put together an interview with Peyton Dodds and Coach Roads about what they did to help show what warriors were made to do!


Senior Peyton Dodds said," it was an emotional and cool experience that went well." He told us what they wore and why, “We have special Jerseys to share the message as a symbol for Joshua." He said," Josh was a leader of their team and wanted the team to keep doing well and not focus on him"

Coach Roads said," he wanted to make the game more special than any other game." "Team meal and a team prayer helped connect with them during the game and after it." " worked out very well, never done anything like it." He said, “it was an experience we will cherish."



Worthington Christian High School Begins New Football Tradition





It's never too late to start a new high school tradition. Worthington Christian High School started their first inaugural varsity football program this past spring. 
Although they've had a rough season going 1-9, they still brought their heart and hustle every time they stepped on the football field. 

In the future years, there is still hope and excitement to come as the program continues to build.The football team faced many challenges this year; ranging from having a lack of guys which causes overplaying which leads to injuries. Fortunately, they came out on top on October 24th with a 42-12 win over Berne Union! We look forward to what our football team can do future seasons.

iJournalism student Collin Kimbrough recently had the opportunity to sit down and interview head coach Brian Stier and the four senior captains; Robby Brennan, Ben Betulius, Nick Grant, and Dominic Francis to talk about what it was like to lead the young football team and leave behind a senior legacy. They also talked about all the hard work they put in the off-season and regular season practices. Dominic Francis, in general, talked about the freshman and how they need to lead the team when they're seniors.
