All Moved In!

Hey everyone, and welcome to my first grad school post. I just finished moving in to my room. As you can see, it's a little small, but I'm in a suite with a common living area, which helps. The door in the picture leads out to a balcony which overlooks the football field. I'm pretty excited about that.

I'm really looking forward to getting started with classes next week. I've got a pretty full load. I'll be taking Elementary Hebrew, Theology and Methodology of Preaching, Biblical Theology and Interpretation, and Advanced Greek Exegesis (pending a passing grade on the Greek Proficiency Exam). More than this, however, I am excited for the spiritual development floor I am living on this year. God has provided me a way to grow spiritually while I'm gaining knowledge in the classroom. I can't wait to see what God has in store for us this year.

Not much else to say for this, the first blog of grad school. My plan is to write regularly on experiences I will have here, reflect on the Christian response to current events, give book recommendations, and generally keep you all updated on my life. Feel free to weigh in as we go along.

So, in the words of Pat Hughes just before Carlos Marmol takes the mound, "Fasten your seat belts, here we go!"

Grace and Peace,

Mike
