The weekend was great.
Left for Melbourne at about 9:30pm Friday. Managed to get to my parents' place in Ferntree Gully by 12:30am, without using the Melway* or knowing what road we were on most of the time. Only had to do four u-turns. One was in Melton anyway, and I shouldn't be expected to know my way around Melton; and two of the others were on the same road, so I reckon they cancel each other out.
The advanced leadership training was great. We learnt a lot of stuff about making Christianity relevant not by changing our beliefs to fit in with the current culture but by being a part of the culture without changing our moral standards.
Making God Famous was about that too, and also about being people of influence.
Yesterday I read the Book of Daniel. Although he was integrated into Babylonian culture, Daniel kept his faith, he continued to honour God over the human authorities.
Yesterday classes started again, so I had Short Story in the morning. Worked in the evening. Ren, from my course, has started working with us now.
This morning was going to be the first Camp St prayer meeting, but it turned out we couldn't get the room for it, so we just went to the Central Square food court and did some planning.
*Because Trav's Melway is a little hard to use, being from 1989. It was the first one to include the Mornington Peninsular. And of course it doesn't have MoronLink.
