So as I've mentioned before, every Friday night, we at ORTV put on a Bible study event called Friday Night Live. It's designed for people to come use their English with the teachers that they've seen on TV and heard on the radio, fellowship, worship, and learn new things from the Bible. I will start teaching at Friday Night Live soon, but for now, I am just sitting in.
There are several students that have been coming to Friday Night Live for years, but there are usually a few new ones each week. For them, we have what is called Bible Basics. Those are classes that introduce the basics of the Bible and Christianity, in an easy to chew format. It's fun to meet new people, and give some of them a little taste of Christianity, which many of them seem completely open to hearing.
After FNL, I found myself surrounded by students who were eager to hear about who I was, where I came from, and just what was I doing in Taiwan anyway? In fact, just about everyone asked me that question. I guess it didn't make sense to them that I would leave California to come here. Either they have a different view of Taiwan or they know something I don't, because I've been having a great time here, and I don't foresee that changing anytime soon!
