ON BREAK, but still thinking about school...




Here are a couple of photos of Tyler's Ship he built from a kit he got for his birthday. And, a fun one of Noah playing Peek A Boo!
Don is on break and we all appreciate having him home. We do have a lot of catching up to do over the next two weeks. If the weather warms up, we might even try cleaning out the garage - LOL
We are planning a trip to Michigan the weekend of the 14th.
Don has two weeks until classes start up again, but he is already looking for the best prices on books, so he can get them shipped in time if he has to order them online. Next quarter, he'll be taking Confessions, Gospels II, Baptism, Homiletics and New Testament, plus he'll continue with Field Work and Greek Readings.
We've been bargain hunting as much as possible, and Don has more than half of his books already. Here are some that he still needs to get:
Augsburg Confession: Commentary (Lief, $18.40)
Sources & Contents of the Book of Concord (Kolb, $23)
Book of Concord (Kolb,$29)
On Being a Theologian (Forde, $17)
The Renewal of Liturgical Preaching (Bass, $14.50)
Preaching for the Church (Caemmerer, $16.80)
Ancient Christian Commentary (Just, $28.80)
Anchor Bible Mark 1-8 ($36.12)
The Lukan Passion & The Praisworthy Death (Scaer, $60)
Lectures of Christian Sacrament ($11.20)
Bible & The Liturgy: Liturgica (Danielou, $24)
Augustine & The Catechumenate ($30.36)
This is just the short list of required books; there is a much longer list of recommended books that he doesn't think he'll ever have time to read. However, if anyone knows how to give us more time in the day - we'll gladly take it! If you don't have a miraculous way to give us more hours in the day to get things done (like reading all these books), but would like to help out this quarter... please contact the Seminary Bookstore and purchase a gift card in the name of Donald Johnson.
I (Corinne) am still working on the technical issues of posting video - especially after last night when I tried to capture video of Caitlin singing and was only able to get about 30 seconds in the middle of her song. GRRR! But, I think I may have a solution, just one more thing for my to-do list. Our last YouTube post was over a year ago, so it's time to get busy on this video issue.
