    Four more weeks to go… It’s hard to believe. The students continue to be amazing: working hard in continued earthquake relief and pressing into to get the most out of each lecture. We just finished a week on the “Lordship of Christ.” This is a big we for the students. On Friday we have a…

    We are working our way into week two, but already it feels like we’ve been here for months. I love all of our students already. The students have been loving going into Christchurch to serve the earthquake relief efforts.

    This week has been amazing. God is really pouring out his love and power into us as we approach these last few weeks before outreach. For an awesome example of this, I refer you to Angela’s blog on Blessings. Earth Care had a fun afternoon learning some more conversational Khmer, and praying for each members…

    Last Friday, I gave my life to Jesus. I don’t mean salvation. That happened years ago. I mean the continual process of laying down my rights to my self and just living in obedience to the King of Kings. We are a product of the decisions we make. The most important? Who will be the…

    It’s hard to believe I’ve only been here for a little over a week. I’ve never been more sure that I’m in exactly the place I’m supposed to be. This last week, classes have covered general housekeeping details and have opened up dialog about personal devotionals, what worship is, prayer, and what it means to…
