It kind of feels good to be at work this morning. Even though I didn’t get the week long vacation that a lot of others took and I didn’t even get to take 2 consecutive days off, I still feel refreshed and happy to be here today.
I am trying hard not to come up with new goals for 2005 since I already have so many for the 2004-2005 school year. I like to take the summer to reflect and rebuild for the year to come.
Along the lines of a good start for 05 is that I finished half of my reading for grad school this week. I completed the first 15 chapters of A History of Christian Education last night. I’ll get started on Church History in Plain Language later today.
I’ve also got a running start on Sunday school for this week, as well as a syllabus for the whole Winter quarter. I’ve even got the summer schedule put together for Sunday school. Don’t tell anyone, but the youth guy might be the most organized guy in the whole church! Ssshhh!
Light Force is a little less planned. The worship team will be practicing music on Tuesday afternoon. (Way late!) I’d also like to get a schedule for talks for the whole series on Revelation but that may get done while I’m down in Huntington. It would be nice if I could come up with a clever title for the series and everything. (That part would need to be done before Wednesday.)
I do know that I’ll be interrupting the series to do the love and dating and infatuation series in February… But beyond that I don’t anticipate any interruptions.
There is something so cyclical about the calendar. Perhaps God designed us for the ups and downs of the lunar calendar or perhaps we’ve merely adapted ourselves? That’s a good question not worth exploring right now.
