Jeff's Kennard

So I checked out Jeff page today, very clean and well done. I hope he created the background because its awesome. There was no complications to any of his navigations. Each page was very legible and user friendly. The only changes I would suggest are a little more content of who he is, I know it was a requirement but more than a single sentence, and the simplicity was edging over to too simple. Just a easy add in on maybe the type or something else to add to coincide with Jeff's personality.

I liked it!

Teaching

This is kind of a continuation of my last post...

I've always wanted to teach ever since I can remember. I can recall teaching seniors math my freshman year and loving it. For a while I wanted to be in the school scene, and still do, but not as much anymore.

There's been such a change on how schools run their classes. Back in the day, schools ran half the time and included outside activities that teachers were strongly advised to participate in. Now we try to get rid of recess and shortening breaks and adding more classes and requirements to our students. No wonder our high school dropout rate is at 10% compared to 6% in earlier years. 

Yes, education is boring at times but what makes a good teacher is one that incorporate fun into it to make each day worth going to.

March Madness Baby!

So I'm not sure what it is but when it comes to March Madness, I love it! 

I've never been an intense sports person. I've always played growing up for example:
Baseball - up to age 11
Basketball - played through 10th grade
Football - played my 8th grade year
Golf - Always played and on the 10th grade golf team
Soccer - never played but love watching it

I've done all these sports but I lack one thing; a competitive drive. When it comes to competitions, I enjoy the fun of it over whether I won or not. When people start to get super serious in games to the point of yelling, I stop caring about my skill. 

This is very apparent in my school behavior. My girlfriend graduated fourth in her class, beating all the females, and has a huge competitive drive. Me on the other had can't tell you where I placed, mostly cause I don't care but also because school wasn't fun so my performance was based on my ability to preform.

Finished!

Military term in the Old Testament (Joshua 14:11):
Coming in = Resting from battle Going out = Fighting the War

Spiritually this means:
Coming in = Entering God’s presence Going out = Witnessing and teaching

Another way to see it:
Coming in = Copying Going out = Pasting

God created us to be this beings that would “Come In” and “Go Out”

That’s why we have worship. To come before the LORD and rest and regain strength. 

Scripture: To obtain, take in, words from God
Prayer: Talk with the Commander and Discuss plans of operation. Then Go!
 
It sounds like this beautiful picture to never leave God presence and continue to take in and take it.

God design you to be a river where things are going in are you’re giving them out.
He did not design you to be a reservoir and to be stagnant. 

God designed you to give and for life to be going out of you.
When you stop giving, you begin to turn inward

Discipleship Week

Copy & Paste

PRAY!
Discussion of what the month is about: Recap on Last week

Matt 28:18
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Luke 24:47
And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. And you are witnesses of these things. Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.

Jesus told them to witness, but first to stay. -Upper Room- 3,000 saved


Coming in and going out

1 King 3:7
Now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king instead of my father David, but I [am] a little child; I do not know [how] to go out or come in.

Did Solomon have trouble with doors or door knobs? NO!

Transparency

So I couldn't find anything helpful for the homework. I kinda have a feeling that I didn't write the homework down correctly. Well, I'll just get to class early then to figure out what it is "exactly" I need to do. Yea, Dreamweaver!
