"Mini Boot Camp"

I've been here at Precept for 9 days now.  It has been so great.  The Lord is teaching me so much.  We have been in the classroom every day completing all the workshops that Precept Ministries offers.  The ones we have completed so far are Witnessing, Biblical Prayer, How to study your Bible, Basics of Precept Upon Precept, and Word Studies.  It is so great for us interns to go through all of these even though we have done inductive study for so long, because we are going to be teaching at Precept.  We have gotten the privilege to watch many different teachers and their different approaches in teaching and leading.  It has built our confidence in leading as well as focus us on Who is really the One giving us the power and strength to lead.  

Tomorrow is our first day of leading.  We get to participate in the Executive Briefing.  The donors and sponsors of Precept Ministries are coming to Chattanooga to experience a "Mini Boot Camp".  They are going to go through many of the different activities and sessions that the campers go through.  We get to take them through a little bit of the studies we will be teaching the students here this summer.  We really want them to see how the student ministries part of Precept works and looks like.  It is really exciting!  So, please pray not only for the interns as we teach, but that the Lord's will would be done and that He would provide.  

I know this isn't a very long blog, but just know that I feel so blessed to be here.  The Lord is putting everything together perfectly and humbling me like no other.  He is taking me step by step this journey and I am so glad that I am in the palm of His hand.  How unworthy I feel and yet this is how He is glorified the most!  Thank you for your prayers!
