Every freaking year, day, month, any time really, I get this question, "What are you going to do with a Christian Ed. degree? Teach sunday school?" Just so you know, I did not go to a 32,000 dollar school to teach Sunday school. That would be rather foolish, now wouldn't it? However, I know what you are thinking, "it's just as bad to go for Christian Ed., you read the Bible and talk about your feelings." You know what, you are right, I go to a $32,000 school to read the Bible and talk about my feelings. I could do that for free....what was I thinking. But on a serious note, what in the heck am I going to do with this major? I could do the typical thing, go work in a nice suburban church teaching little children about Jesus, but no...that is not where I am called. That is not what I feel God wants me to do. So for all of you people who have anxiously been waiting to know what I am going to do with my future...let me tell you. I, Annie Freaking Nelson, am going to move to the hood. Yes, the hood. I do not want to live in farmville, USA anymore, nor do I want to live in richville, USA anymore. I want to live in the straight up hood. I'm talkin, "back up or I am going to cap yo' ass" hood. Honestly, I want to work with people. I want to give to those who need the love of Christ. I want to go to the root of the problem on our streets and shine some light on how to deal with it. I want God to work through me so that I may expand his Kingdom...even into the projects. I want to live a life dangerously outside of my comfort zone. What's up now world?
