Prayer Requests

Well, our meeting is this Thursday, but there are some pressing matters that call for our prayers. First, Jason went to the ER for an issue with his throat; so he needs prayer for quick and effective healing. Second, Curt will be in Court on the 15th, and obviously court is NOT fun; he will need our prayers to effectively serve the Lord in spite of anxiety/fear. I'm sure there are more prayer requests, in addition to those of last week, so feel free to post any prayer requests you have.

From One Meeting to the Next

Well, we had a great meeting on Thursday. Four of us showed, Starbucks coffee flowed, and our discussion ranged from Jeremiah to Job (Goal 4) to ninja-octopi (Goal 5... loosely). God's spirit was with us, and it was very encouraging to have fellowship, prayer, and discussion in such a public place without the faintest hindrance of the fear of man. It seemed like home away from home. And several people in the coffee house were listening intently to us, at times, but it seemed to hinder neither the Spirit nor our fellowship.

Looking forward and connecting last week's discussion, I think there is a lot to Chet Fahrmeier's teaching today (WorldView). It reminded me of The armor of God (specifically the cleats of readiness). Would anyone object to looking into Ephesians next week? Please bring on any scripture that jumps at you on that topic (Dissapointment and Discouragement vs. Eternal Perspective and The Next Generation).

Well, same time, same place, and same purpose, but on Thursday, February 16...

...Shalome!
