So much has happened the past three years, it's hard to really catch things up here on my blog. I really need to try and post at least once a week. Right now Chris and I are taking Course of Study classes as a continuing education with the Methodist Church. We are required to take a certain number of classes, to be done within the next 8 or so years. The church offeres them twice a year, spring and fall. We are in the middle of our first round and it is quite challenging. Since I have had not formal education since high school, it's a little intimidating. I have never written college level papers and it's proving to be a very difficult thing to try and compose. My brain just does not function very well when it comes to forumlating answers to the questions and well as the one long paper we need to write for this class. Chris is helping me a little, this kind of thing comes much easier for him. But,he can't help me too much or it will be obvious to the insctrutor that I'm getting a lot of assistance.
Needless to say, I will be glad when this first round is over. It's a lot of reading, a lot of thinking and a lot of composing the answers and papers. I must say, tho, it's very interesting and I am finding it helps me understand the Bible better. It also helps me to better research scripture for upcoming sermons.
