Communicating for a Change: Seven Keys to Irresistible Communication

I am now done for the semester. Having just finished up my Hebrew test yesterday, I can now relax a little bit. Today I got the results back and got an A- (which is a total shock, since I usually do a lot worse than that on language tests). I attribute a portion of that grade to Mountain Dew. For the last quiz and this final, I drank Mountain Dew before the class at 8am. Both times, I got a good grade. This means that I potentially would have performed much better in all of the two and a half years of Greek and this whole year of Hebrew if I only drank some Mountain Dew beforehand to wake me up and get my mind running. There is a conspiracy to have all language classes at 8am, which doesn't help me since my mind doesn't start running that well that early.

Even if I know the material the night before, somehow it evades me in the heat of the moment the next morning. This is why I am so excited about finishing up with Hebrew class and finishing on a high note. If only this is the last language class I will ever take. Hello Japanese!! Unfortunately, the irony of God is opening future doors to learn more languages. This is impossible to imagine back in high school, since I never dreamed of being bi-lingual, let alone understanding multiple languages one day.

Am I pathetic? As soon as I finish studying for classes, I waste no time jumping into other books that I haven't had time to read during the semester. Finally, I get to read one of my preaching books that has been sitting on the shelf for months.

I really enjoy your posts. I'm so glad I stumbled on to your site. Did you ever have a chance to check out www.topchretien.com? Also, if you are ever in Urbana, IL perhaps I can arrange to have you speak at one our francophone services.  Blessings in abundance!!

Grant,

Here is another french web-site that you can try on for size. www.perspectivesreformees.com. This one is my personal favorite for obvious reasons. Blessings in abundance!

Hello Grant,
Your site is so simple yet elegant but I see that you don’t write here much anymore!
I want to help people to really get to know what God’s plans are for us, especially in these troubled times: "Your luck will end! I will see to it that you are slaughtered with swords. You refused to answer when I called out; you paid no attention to my instructions. Instead, you did what I hated, knowing it was wrong." (Isaiah 65:12) (CEV)
I like to write articles about God and religion on my site. I hope you get a chance to look at them.
