April 3

I have had so much that I've wanted to write about in the last three weeks that I really have no idea where to begin. Hopefully this week will be completely filled with studying for my Transition test Friday and writing on Straight Talk. I'll start with some recent stuff then later on I will go back with some more in depth stuff, particularly about the Tampa trip (which was amazing, by the way).

Church was really good today. We had a guest speaker, and he started by reading the text, which came from a very interesting part of Genesis. Chapter 19 gives the story of Lot and his two daughters, and speaks of how they both became pregnant by Lot after getting him to drink. It put everyone on their heels as to how the speaker was going to handle the text, and I thought he did an amazing job. The applications became real to all of us, and he was very good at getting his points across. I enjoyed some great buffet lunch with the Castles, Pop, the Robersons, and Dr. and Mrs. Lawless. Great conversations were had as always. Tonight I went and listened to Dr. Lawless speak on Mark 4, which includes the Parable of the Sower. He shed some new light onto that passage and its application to teaching. I found it very helpful, and was glad I decided to go hear it.

Many more posts to come soon, I promise. Hang in there, readers.
