I finished my first mini marathon. I finished in the top 89 percent, not bad for returning academic. Thanks again to training team of Donald Guthrie (author of New Testament - Introduction), George Eldon Ladd (author of A Theology of the New Testament) and Professor Knox Chamblin. All three men helped me see the four Gospels and Acts as yet another way the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, use the life of Jesus to help me understand just how much the LORD loves me.
My next class is the Pauline Epistles or the Letters of Paul. Coach Chamblin is back and to help me improve my finish, he has changed the coaching staff. D.A. Carson, Douglas J. Moo, and Leon Morris, have pooled their training "know how" into An Introduction to the New Testament. Besides training for three longer runs, I get to write a literary analysis of 2 Thessalonians, Ephesians and 2 Timothy. I guess you could look at these as extended stretching and strength training. Need to add some muscle to this head knowledge.
I hope you are keeping up with some form of Bible reading plan for 2010. If you are reading along with me, then you just witness Abram and Lot split, Jesus teach on the sabbath, Nehemiah getting help from the King, and Peter walking out of jail. If you are reading the Bible chronologically, then you are with Job and his friends. Check the top of the page for this weeks memory verse. Check out the calender for daily Bible reading info. Off to hang with Carson, Moo, and Morris...they just cannot get enough of me (photos to the left).
