Audit

I think the class was very well laid out. The balance of exercises, reading and writing, was good. I was challenged and encouraged spiritually, and that was what I desired. The lectures were good. I would love to sit and discuss some of the lectures with Dr. Averbeck, because I think there is a depth to be plummeted that could not be fully expressed in a lecture. There was a paradigm shift for me as a result of this class that is transforming my relationship with and my worship of the Lord. I can’t express what a difference it is making. I hope I never recover! 🙂 I didn’t mention it to anyone in class, but this was good for me in another way, also. I have had some issues in my ability to process, and definitely in writing because of repercussions from an old head injury and an illness in recent years that affected my ability to process and put things on paper. My journaling almost altogether stopped. I had to withdraw from a Master’s program as a result. Last year I received some therapy that has helped regain some of what I lost, so it was good to take a class like this that was non-threatening (audit, no struggle over grade), where I could just see where I am. I would still love to get my Master’s in Bible (I have my Bachelor’s in Bible). Anyway, thanks for listening to that part. It’s just a thrill for me to be doing better than I was, and to be able to process the lectures. God is good!
