Well i have been in the Holy Land for six days now; and it feels like a month. Class is going good, in fact its one of the best classes I've ever had. Joel is doing a really good job teaching! We went over the Circumcision of Jesus(Lk 2:21), The Presentation (Lk 2:22-38), Wise men form the East (Mt 2: 1-12), and the flight to Egypt and the return (Mt 2: 13-23). Class has been a really big blessing, its so cool going through it chronologically. Another interesting fact is that this is my first time going through any Gospel and I'm going through all of them.
Me Bryan and Joel went to the Holocaust Museum... it was very interesting to put it at best. In fact it was just down right horrible! My constant thought was "HOW CAN MAN FALL TO SUCH A LEVEL! AND DO SUCH A WICKED THING AGAINST THEIR FELLOW MAN!" Then I went to the Children memorial and if you have never been there its insane. You are standing in a dimly lit room with five or six candles and then there are mirrors everywhere. It represents all of the kids that have died. Like that wasn't sad enough they have a recording of a man and a woman saying the names of the Children and their ages. This all bothered me really badly but then i remembered Total Depravity... Its so true there is nothing good inside of us! I really wish i could of taken some pictures of the stuff inside the buildings. They were quit astonishing to see. Oh i would also have to say the taxi that we took there and back was SUPER scary.
So we (the students) were able to get on top of the hotels roof, man, you can see everything it was so cool! Unfortunately I didn't get a great picture.
I am really blessed but I still need prayer... and i would hope that you guys would be praying for me because this place is overflowing with spiritual warfare.
