I just finished a review of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's book, "The Cost of Discipleship" which in my view should be a book every Christian should read. Its topic is the biblical view of discipleship as opposed to the "easy believism" or "cheap grace"(in Bonhoeffer's terms) gospel that is prevalent today. Bonhoeffer was a Pastor in Nazi Germany who stood up against Hitler to the point of being hanged for his convictions, so I think he is qualified to write on this subject. I am done with the book now and will make it available in the FBC library if you want to be challenge through reading it (even if you don't want to be challenged, you probably should read it, lol). Actually, I would love to go through this book with some men of the Church this summer if anyone is interested let me know.
One of my favorite classes has been Greek Syntax. Who would have known? Greek is and always be hard for me, but it has been great this semester to read 1 John, Mark 1, Colossians 1, and Romans 5 in the original greek language. The insights you can gain are significant.
Speaking of this summer, I am available for work this summer if any of you need something done, in order to help pay for school. If you would keep me in mind or know of a job that is flexible in hours I would appreciate it!
Thanks
Rob
