I’m struggling with this Angel bible study. The study itself is weak and I don’t trust the author. I don’t like the facile implications of the questions and it’s requiring an inordinate amount of study. I will probably spend the weekend trying to figure things out–which may not be a bad thing.
The pastor who oversees me is out of town this week, and I’m uneasy as we head into demons next week.
So, prayers for wisdom and clarity, but mostly that I don’t misrepresent this important topic. We thought we where getting into something light and easy after Jeremiah. I feel like I’ve fallen into a quagmire. 😦
Praise — Carol got moved into her new assisted living facility yesterday (in Hollywood) and she says it’s very nice, the people are friendly (although her roommate is deaf, which poses some challenges). When I asked her if it was better than her last place (which truly was a dump and not in a very good area at all) she said, “Yes, better by about 1,000%.” She’s looking forward to exploring the new neighborhood in the next few days.
Thanks Karen, I feel pretty good about it. And while it’s a bit of a drive on a congested freeway for me to get there (I’m going to buy into the city’s toll lane system that should help avoid some of the congestion), I’m kind of looking forward to getting reacquainted with Hollywood — my parents lived there when I was born & I worked there for several years out of college; I used to go there semi-regularly all through my teens & 20s-30s, but I haven’t had a reason to go there too often lately.
And Carol says it looks like there are a couple Mo. Synod Lutheran churches nearby, which is great — and her facility also is just a couple blocks away from Hollywood 1st Pres., which was Zamperini’s home church. I’m really hoping she can get hooked into a good conservative Lutheran church that’s convenient and close enough for her since she needs transportation or would have to walk.
