My School

Well... been doing lot these days... like always... got a new manager... my selling skills got better because of him.

I'm thinking about going to Thailand this june... i have this week to figure things out....

I'm doing lot of things but I really want to focus on school so I decided to take couple classes instead of just one....

Here are my classes that I'm taking for my Master's Degree
1) Hermeneutics
2) Homiletics
3) Pastoral Practicum
4) Church Administration
5) Introduction & History of the Old Testament
6) New Testament Studies: Matthew
7) New Testament Studies: Hebrew
8) Old Testament Studies: Daniel
9) Apologetics I
10) Systematic Theology I

If I can....

11) Biblical Ethics
12) Biblical Worship
13) Church History I
14) Presbyterian Church History
15) Cults and Heresies
WELL.... atleast one or two if i can...

I have 37 classes and I am planning on finishing this degree within 2 1/2 years or less. I might even have to take a year off from work if I have too.

But i've started with many of the books and started to do all the book requirements and after that the lectures *sigh.....

I am also starting out a Christian club, bible teaching for CSUN soon, and Friday Bible Study, and I don't know what else. I've moved to my local PCA and it has been great.


I will be busy.. just in case I don't come back for a while... God Bless. and please pray for me with my studies and servant-hood.

Tired

Been tired lot these days.... mostly with RadioShack and the work that's involved. Since we are going to get another manager, things might get easier or harder. I might move my work closer to my home and maybe take that hour + from driving and use it for something else (i've been re-studying my modern Greek with my iPod). The materials for my classes seems to drag. The book im reading is taking long time, its so weird. I'm only on the 170 pages with one book, its almost going to be a month now, and it seems like i'm not getting my readings done and my summaries and outlines. At least i'm done with two 45 minute lectures, but i have 14 more to go. I just wish I can focus on studying for my Master's Degree and get this done within or less than 3 years. Maybe I can cut back on my time at work and focus more on studying. However, I might be able to become a manager for RadioShack sooner than I think and that will pretty much give me the financial lift. Well for now, i'll study as much as possible, and not watch movies everyday. I lost focus on my site for now, since work has been a killer for me. Lot of things are going on and lot of things must be done. Me and two other pastors are trying to a bible study group for college students and hopefully high school students as well. Our primary goal is to reach out to CSUN and to other college students. We also talked about making a Fraternity and Sorority in campus' that will benefit Christian living and the shun of worldly activities that goes on those societies. I am still praying about this, I can't imagine a Christian Fraternity or Sorority, but lets see what God will do. Our first meeting was yesterday and I was stressing the importance of going book by book, exegetical approach to the Bible for at least 1 hour, the rest was about our vision for what we want to do; to teach the Bible and to have them teach others as well. I must say, going from Matthew to Galatians thus far as improved many of our group and even though its been 2 1/2 years, I can see few that have exceeded my expectations in concerning biblical understanding. I wish to see more wanting to be hungry for God's Word, and I hope this vision we have, me and two other pastors will glorify God. Both are Southern Baptist, i'm more leaning towards PCA denomination, yet I don't know where God will lead me. If I was given an opportunity to become PCA ordained, I don't think I will hesitate. Our English Ministry decided to move to a different church and this PCA Valley Presbyterian Church seemed to be the best fit, and its close to us, maybe the only concern is the NIV bibles thats hanging on the pews at the church. Other than that, i find it welcoming to my discerning mind of mine. I was planning on to go to Thailand this June, however, I still don't know my answer. After I came back from Greece, I felt the need to go to different countries and see the hunger as well as poverty. I'm afraid to go to Africa, because I might kill myself in seeing so many (I hate it when i see the clips on tv showing the illness of Africa). I think if I go there, I wouldn't want to come back. I was wanting to plan an organization or be involved in helping the sick and the poor and the biblical teachings of the Bible in other countries. I think I will start this within my community and go from there, and the Lord willing get this up and running, glorifying His glorious name. As we did Focusing on Hymn, one of the church wanted us to go to their church so that his congregation will understand the importance of biblical worship. And we are still planning on the Logos Event: The importance of Bible Study at the end of May. There is more than these things to which I am planning on to do. I just pray that Christians can be Christians and not just call themselves Christian, but be one. I also want to bring the importance of the Word back to everyone and shun liberalism. For the past few years i've been fighting against liberalism, and with few steps, I can see the work of God. Starting with our English Ministry, I am not saying that we have the perfect church, but most now realizes the importance of the Word, though more work is still needed, starting with few and seeing them and others alike going out there to share the importance of true biblical Christianity is my goal, and God is opening the doors to other churches and pastors out there. I am so thankful that I am part of God's glorious will, and to have Him use me in such a way. I know that not all can see the truth, but to see the truth in those who are elected is amazing, and if I have to spend years after years to have people realize the truth, Lord be glorified. If anyone wants to pray for such realization of the truth and the works of God please do so. I would also want help from many people out there who can give me advices and help with many things to come, CSUN, homeless, orphans, widows, poverty, injustice, liberalism, and many things please talk to me.

The joy of massage.... i've been tormented with my body for several weeks. when i sleep, my body did not want to get up. i was having a hard time trying to make a fist with my hands. but such a relief with removing some tension from my body.

I had to buy new shoes since saturday, i couldn't stand more than 10 seconds at work. My feet was killing me like crazy and my knees. yet the shoes i bought still hurts me.

i have a meeting with two pastors as we will discuss on important matter of reaching out to college students and high school students within our community, please pray for our meeting and the outcome.

I've been attending PCA near my place, absolutely love it there, if I be in any denomination, PCA is the one.

I took all of the people in my group to see what it was like, and hopefully we can come to a conclusion on what we should be doing. Since we want to move to a different church, and since no pastor has been provided for our English Ministry and nothing has been done for God knows how many years. As soon as we decide, as soon as we tell the people at the church bye, and hopefully the senior pastor won't get mad, unlike Sunday.

So tired at work, and didn't get much homework done from my Master's. As an assistant manager, i have lot of things to do, and i've been doing some overtime. My manager will become a District Manager soon, and hopefully he will help me become a manager in the future.

I bought myself a 42 inch tv, which i left in the living room now, so i can study more, and i just love it.

I received a free Playstation 3 and a laptop computer from someone who was giving things away. So Blu-Ray is just a wonderful technology.

Well, i must go eat and go to the meeting... havent update for a while, wish to keep in touch. God bless. and take cares.

So today, as I was eating, the senior pastor came to the room and in korean culture, we say hello (respectively). And so I did, and he said, hurry and clean this room. I was like hmmm, and I lost my appetite. He knew that I took people to the other church, but I mean, this kind of act made me frustrated, but whatevers.

So, our group has been to this PCA church and I love it.

I bought Patriot on Blu-Ray.... man its sooooooo goood.... hahhahah
