It's more like I anticipate the joy of being able to put the text together and read it fully, and so parsing is a part of that. It's rather like when I'm recording and I spend 4 hours trying to get the right EQ mix on my vocal tracks, which is taxing but I know the end product will be greatly rewarding. And I do find real joy in the process as well - but no, I probably wouldn't sit around parsing verbs just for the passionate experience. ;-) Well, ok, the parsing itself is not necessarily the passionate experience.

Thank you for the posts on the site, and yes I plan on mentioning the pacifism in the movement. We changed from an anti-government movement to a nationalistic movement during the time of WWII.

I hope it goes well. I am still wrestling with what to do when I finish my M.Div, a lot of which will be incumbent on whether I decide to go in a more academically- or ministry-oriented direction. Thank the Lord I have a couple of years yet before I need to decide. Did you have any courses with Lee Camp at Lipscomb? Doing Greek parsing has never been a discipline that provides fire for the soul.

Not for you, perhaps. ;-)

I imagine that will be a lot of work! At least it will be cheap... Since finishing grad school, I too have been considering the doctoral degree. My top pick right now is Johns Hopkins because they offer a DrPH (Doctorate of Public Health) in addition to the PhD in Public Health. I am leaning toward the DrPH because I want to put the degree to work in the healthcare industry, not just academia. Though I eventually want to teach, I want to practice first and I can still eventually teach with a DrPH. SO I totally understand your thought process here, and I agree with your decision. I hope you get the results you want. Good luck! Cool decision! I imagine that will be a lot of work! At least it will be cheap…
