Author: I am neck deep into my studies as an online college student. I am currently taking Old Testament Survey and TheologyI. Let me say this. Online education cannot necessarily be translated into EASY education. There are five lectures each week for each class. Approximately 100 to 150 pages of reading each week in addition to reading the entire Old Testament in eight weeks. There are quizzes, exams, and critiques to write and comments about critiques to write, and then there are comments in regards to the comments to write. I am between overwhelmed and flabergasted. I get up at five a.m. and go to work. I return home about 4 p.m. and bury my head in the Bible or a text book about the Bible and I stay there until 9:30 or 10 p.m. everyday. Having said that, I am having the time of my life. Do not concieve the thought that I have abandoned this post. I am merely following in the direction that God is leading.

Hi! I stumbled across your sight as I was conducting my own research. You speak my heart very well. I too, have a child with special needs, and I am so blessed to have her. It saddens me that many families don’t feel this way. I share your vision that churches need to be at the forefront of embracing diversity and equipping their communities to embrace families with special needs children. I live in Knoxville, Tn, so I hope that we will have the opportunity to meet as we both hear the same call.
Blessings
