I’m waiting for our SBS girls to be ready to go out tonight so this will be a really quick update. We’re headed out for some dessert and some fun hanging out. They’ve just finished working on Ezekiel so it will be a good break for them.
I’m in the middle of working on Ezra and Nehemiah. I’ve really enjoyed studying these books. These will be the last books I teach this year. It will be nice to be done and have a break from studying for a while. So far in studying I’ve really enjoyed seeing the characters of Ezra and Nehemiah. They are both very unique characters. There is so much to learn from them. Ezra was a quiet scholar of the scriptures who grieved deeply over the failure to keep God’s commands. Nehemiah, on the other hand, was a passionate man who could not sit idly by and allow his beloved city to suffer shame and disgrace. God used both of these men to restore the people of Judah to right relationship with God.
I’m looking forward to teaching next week. I’ve been blessed in studying and I hope that the students will too.
We had a fun lecture this morning. Jess taught on Esther and we watched the movie “One Night with the King.” The students are supposed to come up with their own movie version of the story. They are really good at this and hopefully they’ll have fun. They need a break from all the long books they’ve been working on lately. Anyway, looks like they may be finishing up their meeting so I gotta go.
