some prayer points and a ministry opp...

well, things are moving right along -- randy started his winter quarter at fuller jan 3rd and linds just started an interterm class at talbot (her semester will start jan 31). he's loving his ethics and theology classes. she's loving getting into the practicum series where she'll get to meet with students to give spiritual direction soon!

things to pray for:
*randy is not going to the student conference we mentioned last, however, he has created a teaching session for another chi alpha person to lead at the conference (so it'll be like we're there... kind of :). the session will teach students why Biblical justice is distinctive from secular ideas of justice.

*randy has been invited by a professor at a southern CA university to come and teach one of the foundational concepts of Biblical justice. it's called the "hermeneutical circle" and provides a framework for considering social injustice in light of Scripture. (if you're curious, ask randy to explain what the hermeneutical circle is!)

*our beta-testing campuses/chi alpha leaders -- they will be starting up their Biblical Global Justice classes in the coming weeks and need lots of prayer as they invite students and get the word out about the class (geographically, these campuses are in areas such as Washington, D.C., California, and New Hampshire).

*lindsay's ministry through spiritual direction -- this spring she will begin meeting with two undergrad students at biola university. we believe this ministry will bring wonderful depth to our ministry in chi alpha. (don't know what spiritual direction is? just ask! she loves to talk about it!)

blessings and love,
randy & linds
