Classes

Five weeks from now I'll be finishing my second year of seminary. It's hard to believe time has gone by so quickly! It's very encouraging to look back and see what fruit that time has borne. Without a doubt, I am a much different man today than I was two years ago. God has done an amazing work in my life through the joys and trials of seminary. Growth has not always been easy, but it has come. It has come, and continues to come, by four primary means: 1) God's Word. 2) Relationships, especially those of close friends. 3) Classes; lectures and classwork. 4) Professors. 5) Church(es). Weaved throughout all four is the act of discussion. Discussion is for me what miracle grow is for plants. Fortunately for me, the seminary setting is very conducive to this area of learning. So where have I grown? Since there is an NT104 exegetical due tomorrow, I'll have to decline commenting on that subject until a later date. = )

May you grow in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!

Matthew
