Let me tell you, Chapel has been AWESOME so far! I am so pleased. This is part of what makes a Christian university special--not to mention prayer before some classes and Mr. Johnson's readings of Proverbs in intro to philosophy. I love being able to praise God with my classmates.
And who could forget the one and only campus pastor Jonathan White? (By the way, he has a blog too: http://www.jonathan4one.blogspot.com.) Yeah, he's a humble, God-fearing man with a fantastic personality.
Let's not forget the music either. I know that when it comes to praising God, it's about God not us (except our satisfaction in Him), but I just want to say that the Chapel band does a phenomenal job. I love music, and when we sing songs like "Sing to the King," "Marvelous Light," and all those other ones, I'd prefer them not to end. I think "Came to My Rescue" and "Majesty (Here I Am)" would be some good songs to sing in Chapel. My church family and I sing them sometimes, and I almost always get emotional in the presence of God.
A great spiritual rain is coming. Can you feel it? I can't wait to see how God is going to turn MBU upside-down. It's like that Delirious? song: "Open up our hearts. Rain down. All around the world we're singin' rain down." It seems like that's the heart of MBU--glorifying the Father for the joy of all peoples (John Piper).
