Here’s the “Advent Conspiracy” that I’ve been talking about in our discussion group and @ Christmas devotion.

This year’s annual Speed the Light Chili Cookoff was a lot of fun. It was great that we actually had a missionary at this one.

- HELL’S KITCHEN -

mike — Thu, 23 Sep 2010 03:10:17 +0000

A few weeks ago we began our new discussion that will take us all the way through the rest of this year into mid-January. HELL’S KITCHEN: Why Am I Going Through This? is about all that we go through on our life journey. During the first few weeks of our discussion we’ve been trying to answer the question, “Is the journey actually worth the trip?” What’s with all of these trials and hardships? If we’re living for God and He’s got our back, why all the trouble? And are we learning anything as we work through some of the trouble?

For the next 17 weeks we’ll be continuing this informed discussion combining the New Testament teachings of Peter with insights from other popular authors and of course our own insights as we go. Hopefully this will be an encouraging look at why we can dare to hope no matter what our situation. Feel free to join in the discussion on Sunday mornings during Good Shepherd’s Sunday Bible Fellowship hour or online here on our (hopefully) weekly posts. It would be great to get an online discussion going first before we discuss the posted topic on Sunday.

Note: If you have never posted on this blog before, I will have to review and approve your post before it will show up in the discussion thread. Then after I have approved you once, your posts after that will show up immediately.

Week 5 (March 21) Discussion

mike — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 16:54:06 +0000

Just kidding

Actually, last week’s discussion (our best so far, methinks) was just getting rolling when we ran out of time, so we’ll continue with the same topic this week. I’m learning a lot and I’m also learning a lot about all of you. BTW: if any of you have any information on our topic that you would like to bring with you, feel free to share it. Unlike the picture above (sorry, but I just HAD to use it – LOL), we welcome your stories, resources, thoughts & convictions. And the discussion doesn’t have to wait until the group meets. Feel free to post your thoughts here on the website. We have all of this whiz-bang technology; might as well use it.
