This past week the students were challenged
to dig deeper into biblical history through taking the class “Introduction to
the Old Testament” with Professor Don Taylor, DTh. Don’s teachings challenged
the students to read scripture differently. They began to see how the Bible is
not two separate books, but rather, it is a narrative as a whole.

One of the
students, Peyton Arnold, remarked this about the class:
"I loved this class. I now feel more confident in my biblical
knowledge. It was helpful to able to understand the timeline of the Old
Testament and how it can help me understand how it relates and connects to the
New Testament. It helped me to solidify my understanding of the New Covenant
that was made through Jesus in the New Testament."

This week also turned out to be very hectic
but fun for the students as they retold the Old Testament by script writing and
directing a video project. On Friday their hard work was displayed for all, as
the staff were invited to join the students to watch the directors cut of the
film.

At camp this week the staff and students
were able to bond over Tuesday night’s community
fireside. The night was filled
with good food and good company as we all gathered together in Club Coco to
enjoy some pizza and games. It was a well needed break from all the busyness of
student life.
