Starting Again
So, I decided I would start blogging again. I decided today I should revive my blogger blog. And I kinda miss all those people from Grace. Who knows how much I will actually update this though.
I'm really enjoying the ministry I have joined here in Fayetteville. Me and Kayla tried our Stumo and Cru, but they were so huge. The Navigators just kinda fell in our lap. They knew Mr. Schatzmen, so the first week we were up here they came and knocked on me and Kayla's door and asked if they could host a Bible study in our room. I really like Navs, Its so much smaller, everyone knows everyone in it. Since there are so few people, we all have personal relationships with the staff people. When I go to larger ministries I just feel like people fall through the cracks and never get noticed. I really don't like that.
This summer I am going to live in a hotel in Branson with a few people from our campus ministry, and other Navs from other campus all over the country. We are pretty much going to be working at Silver Dollar City full time and having like Bible studies and classes and stuff like that every morning. I'm so excited! My two friends that went last summer are always jumping up and down all excited telling me that I have to go, no matter how many times I have told them I have already applied and committed to it.
Ever since I got up here I have been praying for a older woman that can me me. Like, I would rather live alone in a box for the rest of my life before I became like my mentor me and meet weekly together. I kinda looked at all the staff ladies and never felt so excited about asking one of them. But two weeks ago when we all went to a conference in Dallas God showed me that I have no married women in my life that I see on a regular basis that have the kind of marriage and family that I want for my future. He pretty much told me "Go ask XX." He just put her in my mind. She said yes. Actually she said God has been telling her to keep her eyes open for someone that she could help out in the exact ways I told her I needed help. Its so awesome how God works is two people's lives to bring them together.

Wow. Not sure what you thought about the wildly popular book Blue Like Jazz, but as I read through your website/blog I have to believe you and your readers/students would enjoy the new book: Brown Like Coffee. I found it at brownlikecoffee.com
I would love for you to read it and review/critique here on your site. Thanks
