Wednesday July 16 - Oxford



More lectures today. I had a chance to get out and walk this morning. I needed laundry soap and a few other articles from a grocery store. This was quite a different experience than in the US.

I am missing my family...especially Sharon! I guess that I am a family man and love to have them with me. I am also missing my church family and friends.

What a great experience that I am having. I do believe that my mind is stretched as far as it can! It is hard to take all of the information in...

This learning experience is revolutionizing my ministry.

I will attend more lectures this afternoon. Dinner is at 7 pm. Then I will probably go for a goo walk around Oxford.

The University of Edinburgh


What a great time we are having. Our group left yesterday (July 16th) and took the coach back to Oxford. It was another long trip...but it almost felt as though we were coming home. Scotland was awesome!

We had a chance to gain lectures from professors at University of Edinburgh on Systematic Theology at St. Leonard's Hall.

After our 8 hour bus ride back to Oxford...we were served a quick supper and then attended a 1 1/2 hour lecture over Shakespeare. I survived...actually this was a great lecture delivered to us from Dr. Paul Fiddes - a theology professor at Oxford.
