surrounding ourselves with experience

We have decided to join a class this year that studies the Bible through the text, Interdisciplinary Atlas of the Bible. It touches upon the history, geography, archeology, and theology of the bible. We had our first class this past Thursday and as gabe predicted, we were definitely the youngest ones there by about 25ish years. (There were maybe one or two others that were only slightly older than us). So yes, once a week for the next 7 months we will be surrounded by lovely elders that have so much experience at life and all that it delivers. I'm always intrigued by their stories they share and really enjoy learning from them. So I'm looking forward to our Thursday evenings learning about many different aspects of the bible and learning from our elders, which i think has been lost a bit in our society.
