Me in a classroom

Our fearless leader for our 3-week theology series at church was off traveling the world this week...and he asked me to step in. So up I got in front of 17 or so 7th-graders, and did my very bestest to fill them all in on "How do we read the Bible?" A few of the punk boys tried to push back, shouting out wrong answers and other randomness. I took a page from my how-to-deal-with-annoying-kids-in-the-field manual...and pointedly ignored them. They shut up eventually. All in all, my night in the classroom went relatively smoothly. On a scale of 1 to 10, I give myself...7.
