Family Life Thought #3:

News Release:

Alii, friends in Palau,
Lord willing, I'll be in Palau October 17-29. I should be at the Palau TF, on PCC campus most mornings. The number there is 680-488-4294. You can reach me by email at hmerrell@piu.edu. I'll have information about Spring classes at PIU-Palau and application materials for both PIU-Palau and our Guam campus. I'll be doing the lecture portion of the Marriage and Family Class. The Lectures are on the Biblical Foundation of the Family. I've been given permission to invite leaders from the churches to attend these lectures. If you want to attend, check with Pastor Hiob at Koror Evangelical Church, or write me. The lectures will be Monday-Friday both weeks, at 5:10. The location will be announced, based on the expected attendance.
I can tell you now, that one class that will be offered at PIU-Palau this spring is THEO 200. To take this class students must be enrolled in PIU, or take the class, with adviser permission, as a student at PCC. A scholarship is available for first time students who do not qualify for other financial aid. This class is very useful in ministry, and provides a foundation for further study. You can find application materials at piu.edu, or see me when I am in Palau.
I'm looking forward to seeing you.

What I Learned In The Locker Room:

Why would You Cast Those Pearls Before Those Hogs?

I'm teaching a Marriage and Family class at Pacific Islands University.  Part of what we are working on is getting started well--mate selection.  I've been spending a great deal of time with my past. I'm using the story of how Kathy and I got together
