The Spanish department at my college set these books out for anyone to have for free. There were a lot more, so don’t worry I didn’t greedily take all. But when I saw them, I thought of some for me and some for my pastor’s wife who wants to improve her Spanish and perhaps get her husband, my pastor, to join her.
Two other languages I have wanted to learn some phrases in are Ukrainian and Russian. The director for my department let me join her duolingo family plan to practice Ukrainian. Now I need to actually use my lifetime membership for Rosetta Stone for the Russian.
Besides my interest in languages, what motivates me to learn? I studied Spanish starting at the age of 50. I studied Portuguese a few years after that. Now Ukrainian and Russian? What’s the deal? Am I a language nerd?
For me it is all about being able to connect with people to be able to share Jesus with them. I know if I even only learn some phrases, it shows them I respect them and opens doors for me to share Jesus with them.
So off I go into the realm of languages. Adventures await. 🙂
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
