the journey continues...

tomorrow will be the beginning of the next part of my journey...
Day 1 of Bachelor of Ministry.

This is a major part of my training to prepare for ordained ministry.
In my degree, I am going to major in Christian Leadership and am so excited that my first subject will be Introduction to Christian Leadership, taught as an Intensive over the next 2 weeks. I am also excited about the opportunity to learn in this area from Craig Bailey.

The next 2 weeks will be full-on: half-time study, half-time work, lead worship next weekend, speak to a group of worship leaders at church, and of course, the usual (and wonderful) roles of Mum and wife.

As well as the excitement, there is the apprehension related to returning to study .. at 45 years of age!  I really am keen to do well (of course) and I don't want to embarrass myself in front of my work colleagues (who are also my lecturers).

Study during the Period of Discernment was all about dipping my toe in the water. Now it's time to dive in! ... a bit like that water slide. I'm sure the trip will just as exhilarating!
