Last Friday Pastor Ed from Gracepoint Fellowship Church stepped back on campus to teach Koinonia Bible Studies. I felt transported back in time and was just like one of the students sitting and listening to the messages. When I first came to our fellowship I was struck just by how much Pastor Ed could show how the Bible was so relevant to my life and the same is true today as it was then. As he shared about our culture's need to rush through life (like incessantly pressing the elevator button even though it won't come any faster) and go at a dizzying pace without ever stopping to think and reflect I found myself once again hit by the truth of the Bible and how we are so uneasy with ourselves. He said that we're so aware of our limited time here but that it ought to cause us to prioritize our lives - to know the essential questions of life like who am i, what is life and what is the purpose for my existence? These questions never get old and are always relevant. Man, I love hearing the Word of God preached!
Afterward, Kevan/Jenny and Ellen and I went out with the juniors in Koinonia. We got a chance to slow down and see the beauty of the Golden Gate.
