To my family and friends...

For everyone that was not previously aware, I am attending Ecola Bible School in Cannon Beach, OR this school year. This change of mind/heart happened somewhere between graduation and the end of July and it's been awesome. I'm here for a change of lifestyle...to get away from the stress of academia and the fast paced secular world. I'm also here to be able to pursue God and get to know Him better. So, I've created this blog to keep y'all updated on my life outside of the burro. :)

Much love to everyone!

Week Two

I've been at Ecola for two weeks now and have completely a course in Romans and am nearly done with Old Testament Seminar (David and the nation of Israel) and Hermeneutics (Bible study methods). The test for those classes is tomorrow morning at 10 and as I write this; I'm finishing up a study session with friends. Living at the coast has been pretty fun so far, I think I've been to Seaside about twelve times. haha, maybe not twelve but definitely more than necessary. Living with three other girls in such close quarters has been an interesting experience, but it's working out. I've met so many people these past two weeks; I think I know who everyone in the school is. I've actually started picking up last names. Last Wednesday I helped out with AWANAs at North Coast Family Fellowship which was fun but I was really tired at the time, so I think I'll start working on my homework earlier this week. :) I've also been attending North Coast the last two Sundays; it's been good but I think I'll try out some of the other churches in the area before finding a new one. Being here has been a bit of a culture shock because I constantly have to remind myself that everyone here loves Jesus and is here to learn about him. It's actually pretty refreshing, but sometimes it's just weird.
