Random Update
Greetings! I don't have anything super exciting to report, but I felt like I should post something since I'm going to try to update this at least semi-regularly!
Our lectures so far have all been great, but this week was particularly good! Our speaker for the week was Mike Knott, a preacher from Minnesota, and he spoke on studying the Word of God. So basically, teaching us how to learn!
It was really refreshing for me because since I was raised in the church and grew up being homeschooled with a faith-based curriculum, I think I'm guilty of taking the Bible for granted. Being around it so much makes it easy for me to simply view it as another textbook! So this week I've been gaining a new appreciation for Scripture and it's value, and in turn, that has me more excited to go and share it!
In other news, we're all going to get to "adopt" a refugee family through a partnering organization, World Relief, and we'll get to meet these families sometime next week! That's what I'm most looking forward to at the moment! In the meantime, I'm just praying that God will use me to help my family in whatever way I can, and that He'll just bless that friendship!
(Follow the Word Relief link if you want to find out more about what I'll be doing, or if you're interested in getting involved too!)
