Missions Week

I realy liked the guy who talked. He is so real and understands that there is more to life than all this crap we do and all the material things that we focus on. I am right with him when he says that we need to send people to places all over the world. I think that i am a goer and not a sender. I can't wait until i get done with college cause i am going to leave America for good. I think but who knows.

Holocaust

I did not attend the beginnings class last thursday but i heard that it was really good. The lady was a victim of the holocaust in Germany. I think that it is amazing to think how going through an experience can turn out a sane person. To stick with God and come out so much stronger. I cannot believe the things that they went through. Often times when i think about that or any horrific event that took place it gets me angry at those people who would do such a things.

Using my Strengths

I. One thing that i would want to accomplish would be to experience cultures besides in America. I want to see what else is out there.
I know that my activator strength will help me be active in how i go about it. I will set a goal out there to do something and then just go and do it. Sometimes not thinking about it too much but just risking to try something.
II. Another thing that i want to accomplish is to learn how to study the Bible better. Get a better understanding so that i can be better off on my own and learn deeper theological issues that i have never seen before.
If i can be deliberative in how i use my time and my classes i could be productive. I need to be deliberate about what teachers i take and what kind of classes i take that would be most productive for my mind and soul.
III. I would also like to take part in the community of believers outside just the APU campus and minister to people. Take my ministry and Jesus to people who need it. People who are close and within the community.
By being adaptable i would be able to be led wherever God wants me to go even if it changes often. If i was willing and flexible then it would be more productive wherever i went.
