July 13

By | July 13, 2010

Three years ago today we flew out of Israel and landed in Texas.  It’s hard to capture everything in a few words, but I can say a few things.  We like living here.  It’s best not to think about Israel.  I’ve made good progress in my studies.  I love what I am learning.  Our family has grown together.  We have a wonderful church.

Our son finished reading through the Old Testament this morning.  It took him exactly one month.  He ‘ll read through the NT in the next 10 days, to finish when the church’s summer reading contest ends.  I have been writing the “Bible Reading Guide” for him, and I’ve stayed caught up with him, but I haven’t been posting them all online because I feel it would be overload.

Our other son has learned where every country on the planet is located.  And every state in the U.S. and every province in Canada.  We are thankful.

I finished my OT arguments this past weekend.  My task for this week was to read through them all, edit, and print, but that is not going to happen.

If you have time to listen to a sermon this summer, I recommend this one on David and Bathsheba by Jim Hamilton.  It’s everything I’ve always wanted to say, but much more and much better.

    noo! posting the reading guide is NOT overload. I have to admit I’ve been copying them and had planned on putting it in a notebook to go with the Bible I’m getting him for his birthday. I guess I should have asked your permission first. Please keep posting!!

      Jacquelyn – you’re welcome to copy the reading guide. If you make a book, sell it and make lots of money, then send me a copy :-). My plan is to keep posting the reading guide, but at a pace of perhaps 3x/week, interspersing with other things as I have time.
