It is Friday the 27th! WTS M.Div incoming class of 2012 is nearly 20% done with the intense study of Biblical Greek!
In the world of academics, this is by far the most challenging subject encountered yet! Things I have learned through Greek (but not about Greek):
*I have wonderful classmates who will help me grow, learn and develop.
*I have an instructor who is intelligent, witty, funny, patient, and helpful.
*English language structure and grammar
*Classmates can do 'service projects' in the midst of intense language study
*A good spouse enhances the process by taking care of family/house matters
Although Melissa and I have not seen each other a whole lot, we are both doing well, and enjoyed a quiet night in as Sophia stayed with G & G Waterman and Carlos spent his last evening on the house boat. Melissa has been great about doing things around the house, taking care of Sophia, and even having a little fun during her week of vacation! I greatly appreciate her help and could not spend the time and energy studying without her help!
Many blessings abound, and many people need lifted up in prayer! Call, mail, email, or even better, come visit!
Was good to read your blog and catch up on all you've been doing. Congratulations on the house sale. Good luck in the job hunt. Keep studying the Greek, Paul. (And good luck with that too.) :-) Miss Sophia just keeps growing and changing. In less than one week she went from the army crawl to crawling on all fours. Amazing how quickly they change. She brings great joy to us (the grandparents) and everyone else, I think. Praying for all of you to be settled in one place, together and moving forward in life. We love you.
