This full-length course provides ample instruction and review of the concepts most frequently tested on the SAT, as well as the coaching and implementation of the test-taking techniques that have been proven to work, all while dispelling common myths and reassuring students that the task in front of them is not as daunting as it might seem. To sign up please fill out the form at this link a minimum of 2 weeks prior to the start of the class you are interested in. REGISTER The total $600 for the class will be added to your tuition bill once the class has begun. Contact Mr. Buikema at buikemad@flhsemail.org or Mike directly at mostprep@gmail.comwith questions.

DEVOTIONAL
Daily Lectionary: 2 Chronicles 32:1-22; Colossians 1:1-23
Then Hezekiah the king and Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, prayed because of this and cried to heaven. And the Lord sent an angel, who cut off all the mighty warriors and commanders and officers in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he came into the house of his god, some of his own sons struck him down there with the sword. So the Lord saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib king of Assyria and from the hand of all his enemies, and he provided for them on every side. (2 Chronicles 32:20-22)
In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. We are all the more blessed on earth and in heaven when we are weak and suffer for God’s sake. In fact, we are to consider weakness and suffering as reason to praise and thank God. It’s the highest blessing to suffer in weakness for God’s sake. As Christ Himself says in Matthew 5:11-12, “Blessed are you when men will insult you, and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad: for great is your reward in heaven.” Listen, too, to the words of the prophet Isaiah (51:7), who urges us not to be terrified by the anger and threats of men, but to trust in God: “Do not fear the insults of men, neither be dismayed when they revile you.”
Don’t be upset then by the strength and power of men. You are blessed and satisfied by God. What is the power of all men compared to this God who suffered, died, was buried, went to hell, and rose from death FOR YOU? If they couldn’t bury our God what can they do to us? This is why their threats, angry looks, and insults are harmless. We have Jesus, our Immanuel, the God-who-is-with-us. Therefore, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7), today and forever. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.
The Lord my life arranges; Who can His work destroy? In His good time He changes All sorrow into joy. So let me then be still: My body, soul, and spirit His tender care inherit According to His will. (From God Can Nothing Move Me, LSB 713:3)
