Baptism

I've been asked to write a excrutiating paper in Senior Bible Seminar. My topic? Proper Baptism should be considered a "test of fellowship." It's a 1500 word paper that involves me having to re-word, paraphrase, quote, and opinionate 5-10 sources, half of them must NOT be from the internet. So, you see, last night, I decided to get to 1,000 words and do the rest later today. I only got to 976. I felt as if I was saying the same thing over and over again. The problem is that our library database doesn't cover many articles worth using in my paper, and I have to debate my opinion or stance on the issue on Tuesday. While I've spoken in front of an audience my entire life, I've never felt more nervous about this presentation. You see, there are these two Bible majors who sit in the back. They are constantly challenging the professor as well as those who dare to speak up in class. I'm worried about getting up there, giving my case or stance, and then being ripped apart by those two... PRAY FOR ME!

3 whole days of school left before Spring Break! I can't think of a better word to describe my excitment than -- WHOOO HOOO!!! I'm so excited about Africa and I can't wait to get there. I got an email this morning from Greg telling me there was going to be a ladies' seminar the day we get there and was asked to prepare a lesson or two on some really good topics. I'll discuss more of them later this week. Right now, I've got class!!
