Good Tuesday morning parents!!
Tomorrow night we'll be starting a new series with our students called Forward Motion. So many times we look at our lives with great expectation, thinking we should be leaps from where we are. We expect perfection. We expect to arrive at some level. The reality is that following Christ isn't about leaping to instant perfection. We're walking with Him daily - a walk that involves steps, not leaps. Following Jesus Christ is about the small steps we make every day- steps of obedience, steps in relationship with Him. Sometimes those steps are small, sometimes they are big - but they are all still steps, moving us forward.
We'll begin to break this down with our students tomorrow night at IGNITE. We'll have some music, give away some See Ya At The Pole gear and dive into God's Word...all starting at 5:45 in The Attic.
Speaking of See Ya At The Pole, this is a great event that is taking place next Wednesday morning, September 26th on campuses throughout the city. Most schools meet around the flagpole at 7:00 AM, but you might want to remind your student to check out their school's specific plans. We will be encouraging our students and our church to participate and pray for our schools, students, teachers and country together on that morning!
Early next week you guys will receive some information in the mail about our Unite 2012 Fall Retreat that is taking place October 12-14. The cost for the weekend is $100 and students need to be signed up by October 1st. You can sign your students up through the church website (fbcgoodlettsville.com/students) and payments will be required by Sunday, October 7th.
Our students are still going through a Generation Change study about money on Sunday nights with Kathy Decker and it's been a great time! We still have a few more weeks so all students are welcome to join us in The Attic on Sunday nights at 6:00.
Hope you all have a great week!!
Jeff
