Updates for June
1. Thank you for praying for me as I finalize next year’s schedule. Due to a current teacher shortage, I’ll be going to Ukraine quite a bit again this year. I scheduled to teach there in September and November of 2003 and then again in January and April of 1004. I’m also teaching in Belgium in December 2003 and in Bulgaria in June of 2004. Please be praying for me as I put together the class notes for these classes.
2. In July and August, I’ll be teaching a class at John Brown University called Ethics and Technology. I’ve taught Ethics plenty in Christian settings but this will really be different teaching it in a technological setting. This class is being offered in a new degree program that is totally computer-oriented. We meet for class as normal but everything they do is on their computers. It will be different to be sure and there will probably be a lot of different viewpoints regarding Ethics in the business world. Pray that I can communicate the value of having a moral foundation for ethical decision making and that such conversations might open doors to share the gospel.
3. On June 21st, Joel, Todd, myself and 7 others from the Bible Church of Cabot will be leaving for a missions trip in Mexico. We will be primarily working on building a house for a family there, but we will also have opportunities for friendship evangelism. Also, I have been asked to be the camp speaker, presenting a message every night for about 300 youth and adults working that week. Please pray for me that I can be clear, interesting (everyone will be very tired), and brief (that may take the most prayer!).
4. Finally, be praying for me as I work on the next issue of Teaching Resources. I’m a little behind in my editing and I’d like to get the issue to printer before I leave for Mexico.
Thanks for your prayers and support!
