The SBS -
Today was a big day for the students and staff at the Vancouver School of Biblical Studies. We had our teaching on the book of Malachi, yes the last Old Testament book! It feels like we have been in the prophets forever and at the same time it seems like we just began. Much like the people of Israel who had recently returned from exile, we as a school are all very much looking forward to the Messiah.
Unlike the post-exilic Israelites who waited 400 long years, we know when the Messiah arrives, next week, when we study through the Gospel of Matthew. We are looking forward to having retired pastor and professor Dan Lewis arrive to teach us about the intertestamental period and Matthew.
There are 3 weeks left in this quarter and the students are feeling quite worn out. The prophets tend to have that effect! Pray with us for a strong finish to the quarter, a restful few days between quarters and energy and ambition to work through the New Testament!
YWAM Vancouver -
While we are busy studying, the YWAM Vancouver base is moving. We have a month to prepare the new space and get out of the current one. Please also be praying for this move, for funds, volunteers and for God to be working in all the details to make the move happen on time and without disrupting classes.
