Approaching the end.

So there are about 3 1/2 weeks left of the semester here at the Bible College and I've been working hard getting all of my papers and final progects done, and not only done but done early.

I've had to do another 6 page book report for Missions as well as an actually Newsletter as if I was on the Mission field. For Isaiah I had to do a 7 page paper on the Prophecies of the Messiah in the book of Isaiah. In Church History I had to do a 6 page report on 3 people from Foxe's Book of Martyrs; I chose John Huss, Jerome of Prague, and William Tyndale. Also for Church History I had to complete a timeline of the history of the church from Jesus Christ to now and fit each period of history in with each of the 7 churches of Revelation, which is rather interesting; I chose to do mine as a power point presentation.

I start my final block class this monday, April 28, Hebrews, and will attend it monday through Friday from 9-11 everyday till the semester ends on May 22. The instructor is well known on the campus, Liou Wing. Everybody loves him and apparently he's one of the best teachers here so I'm very excited for this class.

Well as the semester gets closer and closer to it's end I look forward to seeing everyone back home! I miss you all very much and I hope you all are doing great!

God Bless!

Back to Work

Hello everybody, it's been a while since spring break and it was great to see you all! I've been back at the Bible College for a couple weeks now and right back into the routine of studying hard! I actually have an exam in Church History tonight but I feel very prepared and that I've retained a lot from my studying. So far my favorite man that I've read about in my reading is William Tyndale, what an awesome man of faith!

William Tyndale translated portions of the Old and New Testaments into the english language so that the common people would have access to the Scriptures not just the priests. He was quoted telling a priest once, "I will make so that a farm boy behind the plow can know the Scriptures better than the Pope!" Later he was martyred by being burned at the stake. His last words were, "God open the King of England's eyes!"

I've also been blessed to have my girlfriend Brandi visiting here this week to check out the campus to see if she would like to attend here next semester (Thank you Richie and Terri!!!). As you can tell from the picture above we took the opportunity while she was here to go to the beach and spend some time just looking at God's wonderful creation! The drive there is also just beautiful and green!

Although we did have a great time Brandi did sit in on many classes including my own :) She was very blessed to experience student life here at Calvary Chapel Bible College. Her favorite class was Isaiah :)

I hope all of you are doing well and hope to hear from you all soon!

God bless
