Attention Past, Present, & Future RMS Students

     Every year during the first trimester of Redeemer Ministry School I assign an exegetical paper that students have until the first week of December to turn in. Each paper contains a detailed analysis of a pericope from the gospels. They are to be 8-12 pages in length and must cite at minimum four academic sources.

     Once in a while a student will turn in their paper a day or at most two days early. Usually papers are turned in by students who haven't slept in at least 36 hours and are near delusional. The papers smell of Red Bull and Hot Pockets. 

     Today marks a groundbreaking day in that will be forever remembered in the annals of exegetical paper history. For the first time ever I received one completed in full BEFORE THANKSGIVING! Joyce Hawkins crossed the finish line at 3:23pm on November 24th, 2010. She is officially the Usain Bolt of the exegetical paper world. No one is in her rear view mirror. Kenyan long distance runners think she is fast. 

     Attention all future RMS students: The gauntlet has been thrown down and it's signed by Joyce Hawkins.
