Boot Camp, Day Two

Fun, fun!

We talked about what God wants to do in our communities today....

Was a great day, lots of work, lots of discussion and dreaming about God moving across our nation as a whole. Churches are different all around town in method, and all around the nation in method as well. No right answer for method, the disciples were gathered in different venues, and they also told Jesus' story from their own perspectives, so we too have to hear form God for the best way to communicate God's Word to others in our community as they can and will receive it best.

We talked Acts chapter 2. The New Testament church in full swing! We talked relationships, teaching the Bible to others, the importance of everyone reading the Bible, eating together, sharing together, watching out for each other, and so many other aspects of a healthy church. We even watched some movie clips to help illustrate and promote discussion on God's vision of church health and talked about Simon Birch and Patch Adams, too! A cool day....

Tonight we did a high ropes course; the kind of thing that exposes some fear, some excitement, some risk, those types of things that we face everyday to a certain level... And certainly the kind of emotions pastoral leaders face when leading God's people.

Rode the Ultra for 30 minutes or so... and went to my room to do my homework for the day!

Was a great day!

...umm, I'm just now posting this article :) I wrote it last week and saved it without posting it cause it was 2am and I was to beat to proof read! The rest of boot camp was totally awesome... more to come on it soon!
