Sometimes it is like drinking  out of a fire hydrant, but it has been so good for my heart and mind.\u00a0  God continues to stretch me as I read, write and learn from the awesome  men of God teaching us.\u00a0 Click here to learn more about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rts.edu\/\">Reformed Theological Seminary.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/h2>\n<h2>Watch Iverson Kids<\/h2>\n<h3>Interact with their new brother<\/h3>\n<p><a title=\"youtube\" href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ga_UypvGnXM\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/content.delivra.com\/etapcontent\/\/SafeHavenUrbanRedemption\/Katy-gRace-sees-BZ.jpg\" alt=\"Article Image\" width=\"100\" height=\"101\" \/><\/a> The kids love their new brother. \u00a0They play well with him and so far  they haven&#8217;t hurt him too badly. \u00a0It is fun to watch the ways each of  them respond to the new member of the household.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/iversonfamily\">Click to visit our YouTube Channel.<\/a><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">*<\/h2>\n<h2>How is Mommy doing?<\/h2>\n<p>I miss  Newark. I miss teaching those precious kids about their  Savior. I miss  practicing Bible verses over and over with them. I miss  their smiles,  their energy, I even miss the chaos.\u00a0 But I also see how  God has gone  before us here in Florida. He has provided SO faithfully  and in every  area imaginable&#8230;from the perfect home in the perfect  location, to  excellent doctors for us and our kids, to friends, to  homeschool groups,  and more.\u00a0 God  clearly came here before us and  prepared the way. I look at all these  things and they remind me that  the Lord truly called us here&#8230;yes, even  to suburbia (as much as I  prefer the &#8216;hood). I can&#8217;t see it yet, but I  have to trust that the  Lord is going to use us here. My prayer is that  as we cultivate  relationships with the other seminary students that He  will will begin  forming a team to return to Newark with us to carry on  the work already  started.\u00a0 We are surrouned by tons of Christian  resources and  ministries to equip me to be a better wife, mother,  educator, and  Christian laborer. As much as my antsy pants wants to be  DOING, I must  sit myself still in order to learn and absorb so that we  return to  Newark refreshed, equipped, and &#8220;poured into&#8221; in order to pour  our  lives out again for our beloved family there.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/h2>\n<h2>Join our team!<\/h2>\n<p>We  still need a few more friends and family members to join our support  team.\u00a0 Danny is working 20-25 hours a week consulting for Safe Haven,  working as a security guard, and interning for the president of the  school. He is also studying and in class nearly 40 hours per week.\u00a0  Please consider helping support us as we desire to get through school as  fast as possible and get back to Newark to continue to serve the city  we love.
