Well this is my inaugural blog. I really have no idea what I am doing but I am about to do it anyway. I never thought I would be a blogger but then again I never thought I would be an entrepreneur and I was wrong about that too.
The title of the blog originates from one of my favorite verses:
"For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the Lord, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules to Israel." Ezra 7:10
It became a natural choice for the title when I reflected on my first reading and my most recent reading of the verse. The first time, I was sitting in my backyard hammock crying out to God for direction with respect to my career and playing Bible Roulette. I landed on this verse and it was a powerful moment given my love for learning and teaching Scripture. Then recently, while doing my daily reading and again seeking direction on some critical issues in my life, the verse came up again. Another powerful moment and I believe not a coincidence.
My intent is to write weekly regarding my thoughts on my upcoming BFG lessons at First Baptist McKinney. While I feel resistance to the idea of becoming a "blogger", I feel lead to use the medium to communicate and possibly create a better learning environment for people who choose to read the thoughts and then attend one the classes.
So if you are a reader of the blog and/or attend one of the BFG classes, I am humbled and appreciative. I pray that God will honor your time reading and studying.
In Christ,
Curtis
