Thursday night is Bible Study night at the Inkster household.

As a direct result, Thursday afternoon is a flurry of activity to prepare for said Bible Study. This activity includes such things as cleaning the house and writing the handout (I still haven't created one that's typo-free...) for the evening's lively discussion. This afternoon was no exception.

I will tell you that trying to glean insightful questions out of the pages of Deuteronomy while a vacuum scrapes all but the most microscopic dust bits from directly above your head (I work in the basement) is not the easiest thing in the world to do.

I do enjoy these studies though. We end up talking about the strangest things. A couple of weeks ago we had a lengthy discussion about the pros and cons of circumcision. This topic included an examination of the Levitical laws, the historical context and modern day Christian responsibilities. It was really interesting.

For any who may be interested, tonight marked the end of our 10 week study entitled "The Old Testament Challenge". I would highly recommend it to any Christian who wants to dig a little deeper into what they believe.
