Early September

September started with a bang, with me being ill, then Jess who ended up in hospital for a few days to be rehydrated, all in the midst of a busy start to classes. We feel like we have caught up now, hence the opportunity to blog.
This semester I am studying Biblical Hebrew, Exegesis of Matthew, Systematic Theology 2, and doing a ministry placement at Endicott College (which takes up about 10 hours a week). Add that to family committments and lack of sleep, and you'll understand why this feels like the most demanding period of my life. Thankfully Shelley and I are managing to communicate early and well at the moment and so we feel we are getting the work:life balance right at present, and God has been merciful with no Meniere's Disease vertigo attacks (although my hearing is fluctuating).
