I’m retiring at the end of this school year. I’d like to learn to cook like the rednecks on BBQ Pit Boys, maybe learn to fish, supplement pension with sub teaching, and study the Word.
BBQ pit boys are having fun LOL
Which reminds me, a good ol gal hooked me up with an onion gravy smothered poke chop beans and cornbread today for $3
You should read the Bible.
I have read the Bible.
Didn't that discourage you from drinking?
No. Killed my appetite for reading.;)
That has been the very best thing about retirement for me. Don't know where you live, but try to find an organized group that is well-experienced. The group called Community Bible Study in this area is excellent, with multiple locations in various towns. Cannot say enough good about our C.B.S. group of 300 who meet each week. We have an opening session, then break into small groups, then a lecture, and daily home study in a printed workbook or online (there's a small tuition).
I have also heard good things about Cornerstone Bible Studies.
For the first three years of retirement, I traveled 70 miles each way every week to study with a pastor who came recommended (as a Bible-believing political conservative) at his weekly Bible study at his church.
It's important to get with a group where people participate seminar-style, asking questions and not just sitting there. Such a blessing to study the Word. Only wish I had done it in my teens.
