I cannot believe it is April 7th today. I leave for home 4 weeks from tomorrow.
The weeks are going by so fast. Right now we are planning another Unchained which is this Sunday. I am working with a few students on murals that depict the Easter Story which will be displayed at Unchained. There might also be a mural set up at Unchained for the students to draw on during the event. I am also putting together funny videos to be played while the band is playing.
The other intern and I have been doing a small group called The Starting Point with some girls that are involved with The Point. We have been teaching on the Book of Esther. We are almost done, just one week left. At the end after they know the story pretty well, know the history, we are going to watch the movie One Night With The King. The movie is not completely accurate but that is why we chose to work through the book in the bible first before showing it to them. We had about 4-5 students coming every week.
The Point is still going strong, we have about 25 students still coming every week. All the students are very different which is awesome. The students at The Point help with the planning and set up of Unchained.
I am working on a book right now called The Shaping of Things to Come. It is a lot like Liquid Church, however, I like this book better. It talks about having a missional church rather than an attractional church.
I got to go to Oxford last weekend, which was tons of fun. The other intern and I took the coach down to Oxford for the day. There were tons of people there since it was a Saturday, but we did get to see some good things. Like The Eagle and Child, a pub. C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien used to meet up there and talk about their books, for over a 20+ year period. We ate in the same room they met in :-) We also got to go by Christ Church College. Pieces of the Harry Potter movies were filmed there, like the grand hall (where they ate) and the inner court where they learned to fly on brooms.
