Sunlin Hospital: Class 7 of 10

Friday night was another wonderful night learning English mixed with sharing God's word to help train mission minded doctors and nurses.
We started with our warm-up ?: "In your own words, what is love?" Students had a lot of great answers. We then looked at a cute list "The True Meaning of Love" (From the minds of children) Here are some of the quotes from that photocopy:

• When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love. (Rebecca-age8)
• When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth. (Billy-age 4)
• Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs. (Chrissy-age 6)
• Love is what makes you smile when you're tired. (Terri-age 4)
• If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend whom you hate. (Nikka - age 6)
• Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen. (Bobby - age 5)
• There are two kinds of love. Our love. God's love. But God makes both kinds of them. (Jenny - age 4)
• Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday. (Noelle - age 7)

We then looked at 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 to see the biblical definition of God's love.
After that, we listened to the 2nd part of Rick Warren's interview on Larry King Live. Students filled out a worksheet as a listening exercise. Here it is in it's full form. (Many of the answers can be guessed. Do your best and then check the answers which will follow.)
