The end of an era
So I'm just about to finish college. 3 years of my life have been spent there and I have to say I'm feeling a little sad about leaving. I had no idea what sort of place my college was when I applyed (it's sooooo evangelical) and I had no idea how much it could change me...
I now know that if you want to put a smile on the face of most of the people who go there mention the following things 1) Calvin 2) Systematic theology 3) John Piper
and if I want to hack anyone off I either a) pray in tounges, loudly b) suggest a ministry time in chapel comeplete with flag waving! c) insist that penal substitution is silly.
I've met a lot of great people there who have become good friends. Best of all I know a heck of a lot more about the bible (but still not enough!) and feel confident in who God is. My faith has certainly been up and down over the years but the lasting impression college will leave on me is, not my dipolma or even my mates but a foundation in truth that basicly God loves me very much.
It's tempting to put it in a fancy way, because I've learnt how, but that's it!
