the Bonfire is still on!

whether it's a bonfire, or we just hang-out in Josh's barn (it's rad. seriously.), we're still on for tonight.

here's the plan: the rain is supposed to stop by about 6 p.m., it's just a matter of whether the wood is dry enough to burn. if not, we'll order pizza and do movies and games in the barn.

we want you there! and bring your friends!

see you soon.

Thursday, October 15 and Thursday, October 22.

Two IMPORTANT notes about Thursday Night Life in the next two weeks:
  1. We will not be meeting this week. My father is coming to stay with us from New Mexico starting Thursday.
  2. We will not be meeting next Thursday either, because we will be meeting on FRIDAY, October 23 instead. This will be our bonfire at Josh Wilds house.
Have a blessed two weeks!

October 8: Prayer

Have you ever wondered if God is listening when you pray? Have you ever wondered if your prayer has any effect? If your answer is yes, then we have something in common.

I’m betting right now you or someone you know is worried about their job, house, school, friends, or family. I bet many of them, Christian or not, are praying for help. They’re hoping God will step in and fix the situation.

Take a look at what Paul says about prayer:

Look closely at the last sentence of that verse. We need to take a closer look at this verse to understand how to have a powerful and effective prayer life. In troubled times like these ,we need to know how to get our prayers heard by God.

I'll post some points from our conversation in the comments section after our discussion.

October 1: How far are we willing to take this?

How logical is the Christian faith? Is there a difference between delusion and faith?

Take a look at 2 Corinthians:






Are we to disregard what our senses tell us about the world around us?








So then, should we take control of every thought that doesn’t line up with scripture and change it?

What do you think about yourself, your life, your family, or any other situation you are currently in?

Do your thoughts line up with what you can see around you; or do they line up with the promises of God?
