Time for a Bryce Update
I started my last year of seminary today. I can’t believe I’m already at this stage. It looks like it will be a busy year; I have 5 essays, 1 (Greek) test, and at least 3 preaching dates (I’m sure more will come) in the next 11 weeks. So if you need me, chance are I’m behind a book.
Speaking of books…they’re really expensive, and our finances are pretty tight. Please pray for us.
We’re also beginning to think more seriously about what will happen for us after this coming Spring. The ultimate goal seems to be figuring out some way to get back to SoCal to preach the gospel, but it looks likely that we will be staying in Scotland until Ash finishes her Ph.D. This would also give me the opportunity to pick up an M.Th., which would be excellent. We appreciate your prayers and encouragement as we try to figure out how to make our lives work. I talked last night to a pastor from our presbytery back home about option for ministry in the LA area. There look to be some great possibilities for us, but would most likely involve raising huge sums of money, which is not an easy task when you come from a small church in an area with few churches.
On another note, I’ve been getting TONS of comment $p@m recently so I installed a new plugin to block it, and it has been catching over 50 $p@m comments a day for the past week. So, if your comment gets caught as well (i.e., it never shows up), please use the form at the bottom of this page to let me know.
Ummmmm…I think that’s it for now. Thanks for your attention.

How much longer will it be until Ashley finishes her PHD?

I have 2 more years — hoping to submit in spring/summer 2007.
