I just posted this at Facebook:<\/p>\n
Yesterday afternoon I accepted sick friend’s Sunday School class. Young men. “A New Heaven and a New Earth” — 2 Peter 3:7-14; Revelation 21:1-8. Studying for it now. Wish I could have got to “Thoughts for the Week” this week!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Here I’ll “live blog” some of my preparations. I’ll begin by pasting in most of my notes so far. And will plan to add more every ten minutes or so. If you want to help me, please<\/em> use the comment section below!<\/span><\/p>\n
