You Know It's Spring When ...



Sue says:
Ahh, yes. You know it's spring when the lawnmowers come out. An intriguing event occurred today at the Bible College. A team of about 50 employees of a lawn mowing company received training on our campus. First they all took turns mowing the huge soccer field. Then at lunch time, they got to play soccer on the field. Seemed fair.

In cross-cultural communication classes, the students are reading case studies taken from different mission situations, such as a missionary has been taken hostage or a pastor has beaten his wife or a new convert is being dissuaded by his unconverted parents from going as a missionary. They are writing fascinating papers on how to apply Scripture to particular customs that may be a unique challenge to that culture. There is no one right answer, but a number of Scriptures that may apply. A helpful exercise!
