What is going on?
The last couple of weeks have been fairly uneventful. We are in the season of Lent and I am really trying to take advantage of the season to allow Christ to refine my faith. Work is about to get busy and that is good, I hate it when I am slow. One thing that I am really excited about is this summer I am going to teach a class through the letters of Paul. I have enjoyed teaching apologetics but I really prefer to study texts and go through them. The class will introduce the background, theme and the message of each letter. As well it will include an application from the message of the letter. I really think, more now than ever, that study of Sacred Scripture has got to inform the mind with the goal of changing the person. This will be the over-arching goal of the class. When texts are studied within their context and not just picked apart, as never was the intention, the beauty of what God was saying is much more powerful.
In a few weeks my sister Erin, her boyfriend Trent and my two nephews are coming to see Jennifer and me. I am very excited. We don't have kids yet and I love those boys very much.
We have lived in Lubbock for over a year now and I have to say I love our life. We have fun. Well I will go now I hope you are well and God is real to you.
