This proves that I am officially a nerd: One of the highlights of my week so far came when I was registering for my first classes at Southern Seminary. As I glanced through the course catalogue, I noticed a class entitled "Greek Exegesis: Romans" taught by Thomas Schreiner. Oh, the flutter of my heart, especially when I observed that the class fit into my schedule! Immediately, I reached for the "Add" button on my computer screen so I could add to my joy this upcoming fall. But, this mountaintop experience quickly descended into the valley of despair when I saw not only that the class was already filled, but also that there were 28 people in front of me on the waiting list! Apparently, there are some other nerds at Southern like myself.
Oh, the virtue of patience! How little I possess, and God teaches me to cultivate in the small as well as the large things.
