I signed up to teach a three day debate class. I thought it would be an interesting challenge. Little did I know that there are many types of debate. I did Lincoln Douglas debate in college. This class's text is "An Introduction to Policy Debate." A different animal indeed. I'm scared. I'm a novice and I'm supposed to teach them. It's a homeschooling group called "Classical Conversations". I've made a plan, I've read the text, made notes, asked local debate teachers for help, read their stuff and made more notes. I figure we'll learn something in the process of all of this... and maybe it will be somewhat interesting. If I am not cooking, cleaning, in the car or sleeping or doing laundry, I'm doing debate.
Most of all, I hope I convey that it is good to think and reason together and ultimately lead others to know Christ.
