Cause Turkey Bowl

Today we instituted the first annual mid high Cause Turkey Bowl. The final score was 91-84 (no joke!) with the game being decided in OT. Thanks to Steve and Eric for being the referees, as well as Ashley and her crew of girls for taking pictures and being insightful commentators. There were no broken bones and only a few broken egos (If you get a chance ask Dave Hudson what it was like to get juked big time by Austin).

8th grade paintball day

The 8th graders went to Camp Tadmor for some good ole' paintballin' fun earlier this month. I forgot to post these sooner. Better late than never...

Just one more reason to give thanks

As we have officially entered the holiday season, first starting with Thanksgiving, slowly proceding to Christmas, and concluding with the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day (I don't want to sound presumptuous out of fear that these words might come back to haunt me...but I am hopeful...go Beavs!). In light of all the thanks that will be given this week don't forget to give thanks for your salvation. "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God." (Ephesians 2:8) I didn't deserve it. You didn't deserve it. But thank God I'm saved.

With that in mind, the following video is the testimony of Ergun Caner. He is now the President and Dean of Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary in Lynchburg, VA. Before coming to Christ he was a devout Muslim. The video is about 25 minutes long and is encouraging in a few different ways:

1.) It's always encouraging to hear stories of salvation

2.) It's a great reminder of what our salvation entails; past, present, and future

3.) It's a story of how one anonymous high school student has been able to impact thousands of people by reaching one lost soul.

How Great is Our God!

A few of the home groups have watched a very moving message by Louie Giglio entitled "How Great is Our God." In case you missed that week, or aren't a part a home group, and want to watch it, I have posted the video below. It's broken up into 5 parts and runs a little over 40 minutes. You'll want to watch it in its entirety. Enjoy!
