Seminary Class

This past weekend the fellows and I traveled to Charlotte for a first class of our seminary course. We are taking Church History 502 which is a study of the Church from the Reformation to the present. Our professor is Dr. Garth Rosell, who I already like a lot after our first class. It seems that Dr. Rosell is really going to challenge us to think critically about how what we are going to learn can be beneficial to our ministry, and what it means for the church today. I always strive to be able to apply which I learn in classes, but I feel as if this class will be extremely applicable to my future ministry. My hope is that I will be able to retain it and use it for the benefit of others.

Ski Trip

Apostles Youth Ski Trip

The Ski Trip was a BLAST! You can see some of the pictures above. We traveled to Snowshoe WV, which ended up being about an 8 hour drive. Arrived at about 3 in the morning on Saturday. Got up at 7:30 and hit the slopes till about 4:30. All that to say I was a little tired afterwords but it was very much worth it. I had to privileged of riding in the MAN van, which was awesome! We spent most of the trip comparing some of our favorite movie or tv characters, discussing who would win if they happened to get in a fight. For example: Chuck Norris or Jack Bauer(I think good ole Chuck won) OR Gandolf from Lord of the Rings or Yoda(Yoda proved to be superior in the minds of high schoolers) The conditions on the slopes were pretty good, a little icy in some spots, and somewhat slushy at the end of the day. I was able to prevent any injuries, although I must admit I did wipe of a few times, the worst being the one right infront of a lodge at the bottom of a black dimond(that just hurts your ego even if it doesnt hurt your body.) All in all the trip was a great success everyone had a great time, and the Apostles youth group maitained its long standing tradition of having someone throw up durring the van right.

Comments

I figured out how to change the setting on my blog. Now anyone can leave a comment even if you do not have an account. I hope that this will encourage more people to leave comments. I would love any and all feedback on what people would like to see or hear about.
