There were many things to like about today – it did not rain, it wasn’t as cold as it could have been and we found where the Haagen-Dass Ice Cream restaurant has relocated. When it disappeared from the Leidseplein a couple of years ago, many of us were in shock and grief. For those of you who know what I’m talking about there is now ample reason to return to Amsterdam.
Today’s class is one that I enjoy the most. I cover the linkage between the Bible, philosophy, art and culture. This is a class I have tried to teach in the States and it just doesn’t seem most Americans can understand what I am talking about until they are in a setting like the one here. I love seeing the lights come on as people begin to get what I am talking about. Seriously, of all that I teach during this seminar, I think this particular class is the most transformational.
Speaking of transformational, back to this Haagen-Daas thing … I don’t take pictures, so I stole some from Wendy’s Face Book so you can get an idea of the level of suffering we endure.

Join me each day as I share what's bouncing around in my head and heart. I wish I had time to sit down with each of you over a good cup of coffee, but at least we can thank God for blogs! Oh! I'll take the coffee, too, whenever I can!
