Third Week!

Sorry this is late.

Life is busy, but amazing!

I have been learning so much!
Not only through the lectures and text, but through living in community!

Learning with and among people is such a learning experience in and of itself.

This is a picture of the students on our first sunday together....
It has truley become a family! We have become soooo close to one another. The conflicts as well as the family bonding have both taught me so much!

I am also blessed to have an extremely amazing staff that lives along with us. They have become just as close to us as the students.

This week we were blessed by having Christopher Hopper with us for three days. He became part of our family immedietely, and taught us so many practical things about the Lord and His heart for affecting the culture we live in.

Check him and his ministry out at christopherhopper.com!

A few topics and points from this weeks lectures:

  • You + Jesus= The impossible becoming possible
  • If you knew what you were destined to do would you want to take that journey?
  • The key to a good relationship (with a spouse, parent, or friend) is loving Jesus more than that person!
  • Let Him have control over your pen. Let Him write your story.
  • God calls us in seasons, be true to the season God has put you in, and listen for when that season is over and the next one is beginning.
  • There is a difference between having a visit from the Lord and having Him inhabit your life!
  • God’s perspective of you is not your perspective of you!
  • If what you do requires divine intervention, it is probably from the Lord! Dream so big that heaven has to back you up.
  • When hearing from the Lord it as all about life. God’s voice creates life, sustains life, and releases life.
  • Unity is not uniformity; it is having the same heart. It is having love, and God is love.
  •  If you are not the one being worshiped, don’t judge the worshipers.
This is even later than I thought it would be! We in fact just finished our fourth week together. Will be writing about the fourth week and all it brought with it this evening..so look forward to it!
