Downhill From Here!

Everybody breathe a sigh of relief for us! I don't mean to ever imply that 15-hour days of nothing but Bible study  are anything but a privilege, but believe me when I say that finishing our Jeremiah assignment this morning was like the first sunny day after a few weeks of rain (which, by the way, we would really appreciate)! This was the last of the really big books, and for the next four weeks we'll be cranking out smaller books at a much faster pace.

Lectures this week were done by our favorite teacher. This is a picture of the timeline of the book of Jeremiah. It's hopelessly unchronological, so this was a HUGE help in figuring out what went where.

We'll be studying Daniel for the first half of this next week (my favorite book!) and for the second half we'll be studying Zechariah. Judy Smith, co-founder of the School of Biblical Studies, will be teaching us Zechariah. She's a wonderful teacher, so we're looking forward to it!

This is a picture of the sunrise last week, taken as I walked to my 6-am bread-baking duties.

Thank you, God, for putting us someplace that's nice to look at :)
