***Besides that, I also plan on taking Political Science from Lonestar, and I'll be taking Principles of Biblical Leadership as a one week, January mini-term.***
I'm not super stoked about my classes or anything, but I decided to bite the bullet and just finish up the rest of my core classes at the same time....I've been procrastinating up to this point. Ha. Oh and for those of you that are paying attention, I've decided that I'm done with Greek. I just don't have the time to commit to studying that it requires (I know that sounds like a lame excuse, but it's legit). I mean, I'm not failing or anything, but it has just become really draining trying to prepare for weekly quizzes and finish all the homework and such. Ah well, maybe I'll pick it up again later in life. But for now, it looks like Spanish might be the better option...

Winter?!
Since when is it winter in Texas?!
Today I had my annual winter-overreaction and put on every warm article of clothing I owned. I managed to wear boots, tights, a scarf AND a winter coat... all for 40-50 degree weather ;) ha.
But in all fairness, it's a long walk from my apartment to work and that wind is KILLER in the morning!
Hopefully everyone is having a wonderful winter kickoff!
Next step = hot chocolate

New Favorite Phrase
Lately I've been kind of reflecting on the different things that "stir my affection(s?)" for the Lord.
Here's some of the things I've come up with (both general and specific):
1.The sermon series we're doing at church right now called "The Path". It has been both encouraging and challenging...basically I leave every Sunday evaluating myself and my sin and pondering the goodness and mercy of God.
2. Everything by Tim Hughes
3. Listening to people share their testimonies (not only their conversion stories, but how God is currently at work in them)
4. Reading Acts and Romans. I feel like I've been walking through them for a LONG time, but it has been really intense and incredibly rewarding.
5. Hearing/Learning/Reading about theology. This is a new one, but recently it's all I want to read about. I've been spending most of my work day (when I'm not working of course) reading different articles and doing research.
I'm sure I could think of more, but right now those 5 seem to be doing the trick :)

It's official!
Well...almost.
This last weekend was my covenant membership class at the Village, and let me tell you, it was WONDERFUL! I feel so blessed and honored to serve, worship and fellowship with the people there. I could gush and gush about it, but I'll spare you and just give you a breakdown of the weekend.
Friday Night:
Basically just a 2 hour Gospel presentation. It was incredible. I have never heard the Gospel so packed-full of Scripture (probably becuase of time restraints! ha). I'm sure my eyes were the size of basketballs the whole time. I'm also pretty sure I spent the next 30 minutes after class recounting the whole thing to my mom.
Saturday Day:
We went over the core values of the church, why we believe what we believe, and all that the covenant entails. I don't think I could summerize it even if I tried, so I'll just say...I love it, I agree wholeheartedly, and YES YES YES. Then at the end they had a Q&A with some of the campus pastors* that was really good and insightful.
I still have to read some articles and meet with my group leader to tell her my conversion story and ask any questions before I sign the covenant, BUT once all that happens I'll officially be a covenant member. VICTORY. I really hope everyone feels as inspired, blessed and encouraged by their church as I do. My heart soars whenever I think about it :)
P.S. Guess who was in my Covenant Class?!?! You guessed it, Tedashii (oh, and 240 other people ;)). Plus he helped lead worship Sunday. Legit.
*Matt wasn't there this weekend, but all the pastors from my campus were, so that was really cool. Every single one of them is so awesome. Gah. Sorry to gush again, can't help it.
