I was at Southern Seminary in Louisville last week for fun and frolic. Actually I attended a three day seminar called “Graduate Research Seminar” that was required for all incoming PhD students. It was three days (8am-5pm) of intense seminars on research methods. We were “baptized by fire” on the proper form and style for submitting work, what is acceptable and unacceptable work, and dozens of different ways to obtain research efficiently. I feel very much like a retired athlete coming out of retirement to play a sport he hasn’t played in ten years. It was very grueling and stretching. Please continue pray for me as I adjust to yet another chapter of my life. I realize how my life is going to have to change to accommodate this intense time for the next four or five years (or longer). I am thankful for my family and church that is supportive. They pray for me and continue to do ministry while I am away.
