Around the Walls of Doane: Day 6

Tonight Ethan and I made our way to the bell tower to meet our faithful students. I imagine I felt the anxiety the Israelites may have felt on their 6th walk around the walls of Jericho. We were on the sixth day, walking around Doane, wondering: what does tomorrow bring? What's behind those walls? My prayers were focused on the many walls that could be on this campus, in peoples lives, and between relationships. I think I can officially say, God has given me a heart for Doane.

Just to give you an update on the FCA skit that was performed last night at the Homecoming pep rally..."It was awesome" was the quote from Wes Jensen, one of our student leaders. As he told us what the skit was about, and how it communicated Christ's victory over Satan, he said students all over the stadium got it. They were whispering about the character that represented Christ in the skit, and became silent when one student declared the gospel through the loudspeaker. Praise the Lord because students were talking about it in class today.

One more day...

...then the walls will come down.
