Through the Bible in an [extended] Summer

Today marks a significant day for me as I actually finished a goal I had previously set!  That’s pretty rare in my life…

5 months, 14 days, 4 hours and 30 minutes ago I set off to read through the Bible chronologically looking at some specific questions. I am looking forward to reviewing my notes and sorting out what I felt like God was showing me through this time.

Deb Masshoff, a NavRep who leads our bi-weekly staff Bible Study in California, keeps reiterating that the entire Bible is a story about God working through Jesus Christ.  I’ve never found that more true than now. God’s the main character. Not us.

Learning Experience…

Last night I made Oyakudon.  It was good. I nearly set off the fire alarm twice and spent 3 hours from start to finish.

San Diego but not really

Highlights from the Beach Camping trip this last weekend:

- At least a dozen students asked why we were taking I-10 instead of I-8 if we were going to San Diego.  “easy” I said, “because we’re not going to San Diego. We’re going to south LA.” The irony?  My caravan took the 8 :).

- A car of all guys from our caravan (which I won’t identify) somehow made it through border patrol not wearing any pants.

- Dustin and Bryce sumo-ing on the beach

- Richie and his bro Steven also sumo-ing in a Moreno throw-down

- Edwardo’s car breaking down at the meeting point before leaving and a group of guys pushing his car into a parking spot, with all the students staring asking themselves “…who’s going to have to ride in that car?”

- Asking the famous Scraw camping trip question to a tent full of freshman guys.
