Back to plan B

I have decided not to get my masters degree at Southeastern Seminary.
-a degree in "Christian" Ethics is basically worthless outside of Christian academia
-i would still have to take many of the same classes that i took in college: New Testament, Theology, etc... (the only advantage i would have would be; $150 saved and the class would be offered as an intensive) For me that is still too much time and money for a class that i've already taken
-as i think about it more, i'm really glad i don't have to take Greek anymore
-The Seminary is tailored to preachers. I don't care to be a preacher. Last night i read a whole book about the statistics of growing churches and their use of new members classes. The bible was barely even referenced. I want to learn theology, not church.

With all that said, i am returning to my previous plan of only taking this next semester at the Seminary. I intend to stay here over the summer, but then i am going to look for opportunities to make my way out west. Well, northwest. When i get there i would like to get heavily involved in a church, but not supported by it. While i do this, i would like to slowly make my way through a history masters in order to be involved on a college campus.
The only thing stopping me from leaving next week is my sunday school group. We've just started growing, and building community takes time. Candice and my relationship is not much of an issue because she was prepared for this before we started dating. If God wants us to work out, then we will. Besides, neither of us would want the other to be somewhere they didn't want to be just because of our relationship. (i know thats a weird sentence but it makes sense if you read it slowly)
And thats my plan for this week. Join me again next month, when i decide to pursue a career in hamster juggling.
