My Epic Journey

The movie night is THIS Sunday, January 24^th.  We will do the movie and then NO EPIC later that evening.

We, unfortunately aren’t going to be able to go to the movie, Invictus.  Instead we will go see the movie, To Save A Life.  After a childhood friend’s death, Jake Taylor, an all-star athlete must change his life – and sacrifice his dreams to save the lives of others.  You can check out more about the movie at To Save A Life or at Plugged In.

We are scheduled to see the movie at the Rave @ Polaris.  The show time is 3:45 pm.  We have 50 tickets for sale at the office for $7.00 a piece.  If you don’t pick yours up by Sunday afternoon, please arrive early to purchase a ticket since we were unable to reserve the theater.

Here is a pic of my favorite books. 

These books I often return to multiple times a year for insight and reflection.  They have helped develop my ministry, my profession and my person.

Wanted to share with you the last message from our week at camp.  Ken Rudolph spoke to a combined chapel group (6th-12th grade).

Four Ways to Have the Hand of God On Your Life

Text:  Nehemiah 2

God puts you in a place so you can influence it.

#1.  Have a Passion to Help the Church (1.4)

• God is not looking for deadbeats.  He is looking for passionate people.
• Quit slumping around like a dying fish.
• Bring your Bible and start participating.
• Be a helper instead of a hinderer.

#2.  Have a Passion for Prayer (1.4)

• Not just a one time prayer but an ongoing, passionate conversation with God.
• Prayer saves the world.
• Start by praying for your own life.

#3.  Have a Passion to Clean Up Our Lives (1.6-9)

• The greatest thrill in life is to have a right relationship with God.
• We can’t live for God and live in sin at the same time.

#4.  Have a Passion to be Used by God (1.10-11)

• You have to be available to God 24/7.
• Go where He wants you to go.
• Do what He wants you to do.

We need this generation to rebuild the walls of the church!!!!
