The Spring semester is off to a fast start and classes are going well. This promises to be my busiest semester to this point but I know I'm really going to enjoy the opportunity to learn from experienced Pastors and church leaders. One of our classes involves journaling "devotional thoughts" to encourage or challenge others in Christ. So in addition to life updates I'll include some of those periodically but will give you fair warning if you would rather read something else. So here's that but we'll place some other updates later on.
