KYLC and dancing

So...KYLC (or next generation as it now wants to be called, but our church is still resisting, as KYLC rolls of the tongue better but yea), in-any-case, was an epic conference. In essence it was a leadership conferance that was designed to help teach us to lead bible studys and other christian groups in general as well as some talks on parts of John and Genesis. Was lots of fun, did so many random and embarrasing things (which im afraid to say are prob gona pop up on facebook at some stage -.-) but yea learnt alot and had lots of fun

The John talkes were given by Grant Reitief, a guy from South Africa, had some really good talks on Jesus's teachings and meanings as well as the relationship of the father and the son and how it affects us and how we can try and live in current sociaties views of chrsitianity and some values that we should have that go against social expectations. Further the study we were preparing was on John 14: 1-7 which was where Jesus explained to his diciples how he is the way the truth and the life and is the only way to heaven as well as a deeper relationship with the Father. So yea wasnt too hard to prepare the actual study, but in the preparation of the study it was great to really go over the passage in a vairaty of ways to really understand and get the most out of it which was good for future quite times (when i learn to do them regularly) but yea lots of fun

The Genesis talks were also great (i thought they were mostly better) and were given by Carl forgothislastname, in any case it was good to study a very overstudied section of the bible. This was especially true of the Gen 1 which is a super overdone and contraversial passage where he talked about the revelations in Gods creation and how the days are more of a structure and how it is kind of sort of compatible with science (ok so mabe not that revolutionary but still good) and then there was the rest of Genesis which i wasnt as familiar with which was interesting to study about the generations after Adam and Eve and stuff (though i phazed out for the Noah talk) but yea funky stuff

umm appart from talks plenty of other fun things. Had a game of Catan which was fun, hilarious how Ronnie and I were so intense in the bargening and trying to outbid each other in trades with other people, but yea still fun (i won in the end =PP), otherwise playing dare Jenga (whoeva loses has to do a dare) and stuff was fun. One of the epic things that we did that was lots of fun (and going to be epicly embarassing) was waking up at 5 am and going to a look out at the 3 sisters and watching the sunrise, however as the sunrise was at about 545 and then we couldnt see the sun till bout 6 ish so we spent about an hour taking stupid photos and vidios (well the vidio thing kind of rolled over into free time cos 0f a uhhhh stupid dance but thats another story) so yea plenty of silly banana things that we did.
IN ANY CASE
lots of fun and probobly lots that i forgot
anyway

2day i went out to a jazz dance class which was alot of fun and then had a hard training session at wing chun so im TIRED... but yea, dancing was lots of fun so gona see if i can make it a regular thing
anyway
thats all for now =D
