Some Fun Trips

So I haven't posted in a while, but have borrowed a friend's laptop for the day and am catching up a bit. Thus the multiple posts.

*Our Small Group is going really well. We are well into the book we decided to study, Ordering Your Private World by Gordan McDonald, and I'm enjoying it a lot more than I first anticipated. It discusses the difference in being a 'driven' person vs. a 'called' person. The last chapter we read talked about John the Baptist being called. McDonald writes: 'Why John? Because John responded. The call demanded submission to God's ways, God's methods, and God's criteria for success. And John was willing to accept those terms no matter what the cost to him in pain or loneliness.' That one really hit me.

*Our trip to Fortress a few weekends ago was a success. Only had 6 rowdy boys, but throw in red paint, a small fight, and the hippo song and we had our hands full! Had a great group go (pictures below) and spent the rest of the day in Ft. Worth after we finished up.





*Also enjoyed a very cold camping trip out at Lake Whitney State Park recently. Spent most of the weekend huddled around the fire, that is the burning of many whole logs... Worship time on Sunday morning, and of course the guys needed help rolling their tent up...
