SBS is in full Swing!! Week 4...

Hey All!

The SBS has started and we have hit the ground running.  We have a very full classroom of 51 students from 15 different nations including USA and Canada.  This class is one that is very outgoing, social and FUN!  The last three weeks have been very busy as we have been having morning and night class because we were teaching the students the Inductive Method, which is the method that we use in the School of Biblical Studies to study the bible. The students caught on SO fast, and us as staff have been very proud of them.  Currently we are nose deep in the Gospel of Mark with a guest speaker Don Gillman, who is the base directer of a base in Taiwan.  Don has an incredible gifting of making the Bible become so real and he does a great job inspiring the students to get excited about missions and making God known all over the world.

Personally, I am currently studying the book First Corinthians.  I teach mid November and I am really looking forward to it, First Corinthians is going to be a challenging book but i am really having fun studying and I am excited to tackle the hard passages in the book and get some good discussion going during class :)  I really love this class and I really believe this is going to be an amazing year for not just me personally, but for the students as well.

Here are some pictures :) enjoy....

SBS 2011-12 is almost HERE!!!

Wow, it has been way to long since my last update! My sincere apologies.

So, it is September here in the great state of Montana and the YWAM Base is full of excitement as the new Fall quarter gets closer.  In about a week and a half we will have over 100 new faces from all over the globe to participate in our different schools that we have here.  53 of those new faces will be School of Biblical Studies students, and we as staff are so excited.  This is a big school and we have been scrambling to get the dorm in order and make sure we have enough beds, desks and dressers so that our students will feel right at home for the next 9 months.

We have students coming from all over the globe, its really exciting, we have at least 10 nations being represented in this years SBS, its so awesome that people come from all over the world to Lakeside, Montana to learn more about God and his word.

This Fall quarter I have the privelege of teaching 1st Corinthians and James. I am both really excited and really nervous, 1st Corinthians has a lot of interesting topics in it that are always being looked at, debated and argued over.  I am excited for fresh revelation from God as I study into these difficult topics and I hope that i am able to communicate the heart of the book and what Paul is trying to say to the Church in Corinth.

Please keep me in your prayers, life keeps getting crazier as the school approaches its beginning, and the craziness wont stop until we graduate all 53 of these students next June :)  I am so excited for what God is going to do, and how he is going to transform lives this year, its going to be a great year!

Blessings!
