Whoa, time flies
I’m currently sitting in a coffee shop at Grace College in Winona Lake, Indiana. Students are studying, talking, and I’m actually overhearing a guy “hit” on a girl. Pretty funny.
Anyway, I wanted to give an update on a couple things. First, speaking at George Fox’s Fall Retreat. I know this picture is a bit blurry, but these are the people I got to know a little over this weekend. It is a mix of GF staff and students who were leading this trip. The theme of the weekend was, “Walk with Me” and it had two perspectives. One was asking other people to walk with me in everyday life – through the ups and downs. They had some couches and chairs set up during different parts of the day so people can walk up and talk to someone. The students that sat there waiting for someone simply had the job of listening. It was a cool concept and seemed to work. The second perspective to the theme was that God was asking us to walk with Him. This is the part I concentrated mostly on. It was a fun time and I hope to be more involved with George Fox over the years.
Secondly, last week I went to a Portland Blazer game…and had these seats. Amazing. I know you can’t tell, but that’s Greg Oden and the Blazer’s bench on the left. We were close. Pretty fun time of hanging out and hearing them talk on the bench about the game. Unfortunately they played horrible. But the seats were great and worth going.

Thirdly, I’m speaking at Grace College all week – to the left is a picture I took this morning before the students arrived. I’m speaking in three chapels, teaching youth ministry classes, and will be doing a training/Q&A session for church leaders this evening from the area. Not sure exactly what that is, but apparently there are people coming – so that’s good I guess. In chapels this week I’m talking about 3 perspectives on life, from 3 different authors in Scripture, using their thoughts in books they wrote. I think that made sense. Anyway, today has been good so far, looking forward to dinner with some people tonight.
