Christ’s Church at Virginia Tech campus ministry

is a non-denominational Christian community of students who:

--believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God

--believe the Bible is the infallible Word of the one and only true God, and therefore embrace it as our first & final authority for faith & practice as it contains all the truth needed for salvation and living in Christ. (2 Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 4:12)

--strive to put our faith in action, to keep growing in our knowledge and love for God, and to transform our world by living as Jesus lived. (James 2:14-26, Colossians 1:9-12, Romans 12:1-2)

"The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever." -- Isaiah 40:8

Peanut Butter, Chocolate, and a Small Group Bible Study just for Guys

Hey guys,
Hope your first week of classes is going well.

I mentioned in a previous post that we have a weekly small group Bible study just for guys, but we had not set a day for it yet. That day has now been set.

We will meet at 7:15pm on Thursdays at our campus house.

Our Guys' Bible study has two main thrusts:
One is to study God's word and learn from it, of course.
The second is to make some really good friends who will support us and help us to live a life that pleases God.

Sometimes we have friends but faith really isn't at the center of our friendship, so they really don't do anything to help us stay strong in the faith. Or maybe they even do the opposite. Other times we study the Bible and learn more stuff about it, but we really aren't putting much of it into practice because we don't have anybody to help us know how or to give us moral support.

Our Guys' Bible Study is designed to bring these two crucial pieces together to give us the support we need to live out the truths we learn from God's word.

When you put chocolate and peanut butter together you end up with a really great dessert. But when you put God's word and Christian fellowship together, you end up with something even better. You end up with the church functioning the way God intended, and transformed lives that reflect the character of Christ. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity.

Feel free to bring a friend with you. Just remember this is for guys only. (The girls have their own group, too.) 

If you need directions to our campus house, a map and simple directions are right over on the right side of your screen. We're only one block from Lee Hall.

That's Thursday nights at 7:15.

Hope you can make it tonight.

Thanks.
Steve
