SBS and BCC

The sound of raindrops outside the feel of humidity in the air. Yes I am still in Hawaii! How do I get so lucky? Serving God definately has it's perks. But there is the occasional, sometimes more frequent, difficulty. But with this post we'll just stick with the positive:)
Less than one month left to go in the Bible course. I am proud of how far the students have come and how much they have learned. They have really worked hard and have gotten a lot of understanding from the time spent in the word. I myself have learned a lot with grading, staffing a ywam school and speaking for a week. I had the chance to teach an Old Testament overveiw with Will a fellow staff member. It was a great experince and I really got to see a lot of God's character more clearly. I think the biggest thing that I learned was how BIG God's love is for us.....there are no words to describe it really other than it's impossible for mankind to fully understand the depth of God's love for us, His creation! It blows me away again and again whenever I look at the exodus or the kings and how God's chosen people constantly turned their back on Him and yet He still chose to love them. He still choses to love us even when we screw up again and again and make the same mistake over and over again. Out God is truly amazing and is worthy of our love in return.

I love the 3 month ywam Bible course. It is a great oppurtunity to dig in and focus totally on the Bible. I would highly recomend it to anyone who has done a DTS. You get to learn so much about the Bible using the inductive Bible Study method. I know this is a pitch for the BCC but thats ok:) Seeing as I'll be leading the next school in Tijuana this September I would love to see you come. God Bless and I hope to see you there!!
