A break from book work! To get some fresh air and away from books for a bit
we went to Mount Seymour and built Nineveh as part of our Nahum assignment.

Christmas came and went quickly and we are well into the second quarter now. You need to understand that this is a frightening quarter, not only because of the oft catastrophic message delivered by the prophets we are studying, but also because this is the quarter when the students have the three biggest books to study through. Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel are the most daunting "big book" weeks of the whole school and despite lacking in sleep and moments of despair that arose multiple times a day during those weeks of staring down unsettlingly large stacks of homework the students have all survived! As a result the class has gained much insight into who God is and His unrelenting love for His people and I can see that many of the students have gained a lot of confidence in their application of the inductive study method that will benefit them for the rest of this school and in all their future studies of the Bible! On a side note - please pray for the staff team who is currently buried in homework to grade...
So we are through all the pre-exilic prophets and we are moving onto Daniel this week and the rest of the post-exilic prophets in the next couple weeks. Please pray for the staff and students as we continue to strive for truth and insight while we study.
