Summer College Study

This summer we had 12-15 students meeting weekly to study the lessons Jesus taught his first followers. It's been really neat to be with these guys (ladies too). I've enjoyed the time spent and will miss them as many head back to school. We had students from Missou, SCCC, Murray State, CMU and Lindenwood to name a few. At first I really debated whether I would be able to relate to them or if I should even try. After all, it's been almost 10 years since my time in student ministry and longer than that with college students.

Yet the pass the couple weeks I've sensed the satisfaction that comes with knowing God has used me. Great one vs one conversations, good group dialogue and insight into the Word. After our last time together last night I'm definitely glad I took the risk.

I can only encourage you that if you believe God might be asking you to trust him in some area of your life, well as the Nike ad says "Just Do It". Choose This Day!
