God is so good!

Today marks the second day of classes for the students (yes... I know, I've been terrible at updating what we have been doing). It's been amazing to be part of such a great team here. We all come from such different places; it's neat to see the skills that everyone brings to the table. Nick has been having a great time starting on some new projects for the campus. He finally gets to "swing his hammer for the Lord" as he would say. It's nice to have some more purpose here as well as we have our assignments for the semester. I'm really excited about what I get to do, more than that, I'm excited to grow in my faith along with Nick and be a part of this ministry here, raising up ambassadors for Christ. Today, I had the privilege of sitting in the Women's Discipleship class, where we will be learning about the names of God, showing who He is through what He has done. And Nick went to the Preaching & Teaching class that David Guzik is teaching and he loved it! We both are still in shock that we get to be here, serving the Lord in such a different way. I know that we are both going to be very busy over the next few months, as well as stretched, tried and broken. But all of that is good for us.

"...Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing if your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing." James 1:2-4
