We make followers of Jesus and help his followers grow

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

Men's Bible Study Tonight at 7:15

Hey guys,
Hope your first day of classes has gone great and you are looking forward to how much you are going to learn the rest of the semester. I know usually at the beginning of the semester I felt a little overwhelmed by how much work was staring me in the face on the syllabi. But it always turned out to be much more doable than it seemed at the beginning of the semester. So don't get psyched out about it. If you just chip away at it faithfully everyday, you can get more done than you ever imagined possible. It's not like it's all due next week. Trust me -- I know from experience.

Hey, I hope you will take an hour or so out this evening to come check out our Bible study just for the guys which we call "Men of God" Bible study. We will be meeting every Monday night this semester at 7:15pm at our campus house, which is very conveniently located right on the edge of campus, just one block from Lee, O'Shag, or Miles Hall. For a map and simple directions just go to CHRISTatVT.org and look on the right side of your screen.

Whether this would be your first time ever to anything at CCVT, you're an "old-timer", or anything in between, you are welcome to join us.

Our Men of God 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.)

That's Monday nights at 7:15.

Hope you can make it tonight.

Thanks.
Steve
