Guys' Bible Study Tonight 7:15

Hey guys,
Hope you all had a good weekend. Saw a lot of you Saturday and/or Sunday morning. Hope the rest of you had a good weekend, too.

Just sending a quick reminder about our Bible Study tonight just for the guys. We'll be starting our study of Romans tonight. This is a lot of people's favorite book of the Bible, and for good reason. Some of the clearest teaching on some of the most important parts of Christianity are contained in Romans. It is quite inspiring at times.

If you missed last week, now would still be a great time to get in on this study because we are really just this week starting the study. Last week we took some time to get to know each other and talked about the vision for the group, so we didn't really start the study of Romans yet. So if you come this week, you'll be in on it right from the beginning.

I mentioned our vision for the group. Basically, the short version is that we have two main goals for this Guys' Bible Study: 1) we want to help each other make some good friends in this group so that we can be a support to each other in living the Christian life as best we can, and 2) we want to put some roots down into the Word of God so that we will know how to draw strength from it at those times in life when we need it. So this is more than just a place to learn more information about the Bible. It's a group of guys that is going to help you live out what you already know, and it's an investment of your time that is going to pay off big for you down the road, later in life, whether that is a few days later, or several years later -- probably both, actually. Invest your time wisely. It's a limited resource.

Feel free to bring a friend with you.

We meet at 7:15pm every Monday at the campus house.

If you need directions, that's easy. Just look at the top right part of your screen. The directions are very clear and our campus house is very conveniently located.

Hope to see you tonight.

Steve
