My Schedule
Things here are intense! I am in class every day from 8:00am- 3:30pm. We take an hour for lunch, but otherwise we are in the lecture hall studying an incredible array of topics. Then we often have a small group for an hour, dinner, then more lectures. The lectures are extremely amazing and challenging. The majority of the challenge is in grasping the huge topics we are discussing, but there is the small challenge of remaining alert and awake for the class time. In just the last two days we have covered topics such as: "Who is God?", "What is wrong with the world?" "The common views of God, 'Santa Clause,' 'The Dictator,' 'The Father Figure,' 'An Abstract Force,' 'The Shepherd,' or an 'Old Man.'" We have also talked about truth.. or if there is even anything really true. You get the picture. We are dealing with intense topics. And during this entire process, I am still struggling to see clearly. My right eye is perfect, but my left eye is still blurring. I wish I had time to write more, but I need to complete my nightly homework. I would appreciate your prayers. My mind and heart are being stretched, I love the challenge, but no growth is easy. More later.

Love you, and continue to pray for that clarity, in all avenues of sight!
Laura,
Love you! The pastors prayed for you this morning.
Intense but they do sound interesting. I hope the leaders are good speakers and presenting in ways you stay captivated by the topics.
Find a dollar store and try some cheap reading glasses, that may help the vision, it helped a friend of mine after her surgery. You may have to take a lens out for the good eye but worth it for $1. and the ability to see clearer when you need to.
Continued prayers for you on this journey.
p.s. I loved the taxi story.
