Ok, this list will probably evolve and hopefully become enriched [and more humorous] over time, but here’s a first draft:
You know you’re in seminary when…
… your textbooks are bigger than the Bible itself
… you’ve met both women in the MDiv program
… your English letters start to look like Greek letters
… there’s such a thing as the “new, hot translation” of the Bible
… the best inside jokes revolve around Hezekiah
… any social gathering includes a “time of worship”
… you find Greek flashcards in your purse
… you’re the one that’s asked to pray at meals
… theological, ontological, hermeneutical and exegetical all become staples in your vocab (even if you’re not sure what they mean)
… you suddenly feel the urge to get a tattoo in Greek or Hebrew, probably on your wrist
… Jesus is listed as an official attendee to your BBQ
Do you have any to add to the list?
Food is served at every occasion outside of class…er…or is that “You know you’re at church when…”
YES. Jesus posters!
…you guess a person’s theological tendencies based on their clothing style.
…the library is the cool hang out.
…your friend complains about the frustrations of not being like Jesus, and you respond with “yeah, inaugurated eschatology sucks.”
…your girlfriend shares what God’s been teaching her in devotions and you barely catch the gist of it as you subconsciously analyze her hermeneutics.”
…you see a person of the opposite gender walking four steps in front of you on the sidewalk, so you slow down so you don’t have to catch up and talk with them or rudely pass them.
…you are sitting in class and the guys next to you in class nonverbally conspire to transport your water bottle all the way down to the other end of the row, well past whispering distance.
…Don Carson walks in the room and a hundred students instantly silence themselves hoping to catch any wisdom that may ooze out if he talks to a student (or sneezes) as he makes his way to the front of the classroom.
…you catch yourself analyzing long words attempting to discern the Greek origins of them and then compare your suspicions with a dictionary, often finding that you’re correct. (This past weekend I realized that sarcophagus means “flesh-eating”, I used to think it merely meant tomb.)
LOVE IT! So true!
mNdEnh I want to say – thank you for this!
