::NANC conference::


My parents approached me a couple of weeks ago about attending a conference that my church was holding and said that my pastor said that it would be a good conference for me. I told them that I would look at my schedule and if I could do it, I would be interested. Well my schedule did allow it and tonight was the first part of the conference. This is a NANC (National Assicaition of Neuthetic Counseling) conference which is a three weekend conference on Biblical Counseling and Discipleship. Over the next three months I will gain around 30 hours of Biblical counseling training. Tonight, we learned the foundation of Biblical Counseling and I was very engaged as it was building on many terms I have heard in my religion classes. And this concept of Biblical Counseling is simply focusing on the application side of the foundation of theology. 
Tomorrow's sessions start at 8 am, which is insane for a typical college kid....I suspect lots of coffee will be consumed tomorrow.

::Calling All Religion Majors (and minors too)::


Okay, today in my class we had a guest speaker and he first showed us this hilarious clip from a blog at Southern Seminary. For all those religion major and minors, you will know this book as the one that makes a great door prop. This almost 1300 page book otherwise known as Systematic Theology, written by the great Wayne Grudem. This book makes most people cringe, but today I found out this book inspired a very funny dance. All those who have dreaded this book need to see this song and dance about the one and only Wayne Grudem.

(the picture of this book does not show how frightening it really is)
