the Fall 2014 quarter is underway!


We are officially a week into the Fall 2014 quarter of the School of Biblical Foundations and Missions course. Its our largest class ever, with twenty three students (and just a handful of staff) so we have plenty to keep us busy! The students seem to be outstanding so far- they have already evidenced a lot of maturity and commitment. 


My involvement this quarter is scaled back significantly as I am still in an ongoing process of  recovering my health after a rough year struggling with a thyroid disorder. Even so, I am fairly busy with my responsibilities: coordinating the outreaches, training the outreach teams, and preparing to teach an upcoming week of lectures. I am really grateful to be sufficiently recovered to be working with the school at all- and working specifically with the outreach related aspects is a good fit for this time. Its both an area I am passionate about and is largely made up of independent tasks- affording me a lot of much needed flexibility. 

Thank you for your prayers... for me and my health; for the team of us staffing this course; and for these precious two dozen students God has called.
