See you there...

Video Scavenger Hunt!

The best time of your life!

A video scavenger hunt is this Friday's amazing activity! Tons of fun, and even more fighting, this will blow your hilarious genes. Just kidding about the fighting part.

Where: Meet at the HUB circle, and hunt all over Indiana.

When: 6:45, to break into teams.

What: What is a "video scavenger hunt" you ask?

Here are some of the rules:

-Teams should establish two captains, one being the driver of the vehicle for the team and the other being an Indiana native, or someone knowledgeable of the layout and back streets of Indiana.
-Each team will be given one video camera, 10 sheets of white paper (for 10 tasks), and a sharpie.
-You will work together to complete and film each task.
-The entire team must come to the Wallworks at 8:30p.m. regardless of how many tasks you have yet to attempt
-At approximately 8:40p.m. all of the participants will gather to watch the team videos

The scoring is based on a complex rubric (which each team will be given), and we'll watch the videos at the end of the night (they're usually pretty hilarious).

Here are some sample tasks from past years:

-Film the courthouse clock at exactly 8:12pm
-Carry a teammate through the Oakgrove while humming the "Superman" theme
-At a fast food restaurant, order mayonnaise in your coffee. A team member must then drink it.

Who knows what tasks await us this year!
(Don't worry, your team won't make you do anything you don't want to do)

See you there!

Posers

Here's an excerpt from the text that Joe read on Tuesday...

"So when you, a mere man, pass judgment
on them and yet do the same things, do you
think you will escape God's judgment?"
(Romans 2:3)

The apostle Paul was confronting the Christian "Posers"; people who say they follow Christ but with hearts haven't been changed from the inside-out.

Great news, though! Paul says in a another letter that if we try to get to God by keeping his commandments, we'll fail miserably and come under the curse of God's judgment.

But Paul quickly follows with,

"Christ Redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us."
(Galatians 3:13)

Jesus really died for real sinners who really need to be rescued from the real judgment we really deserve!


Stay posted for some thoughtful questions for application and details on this Sunday's cookout later this week...

Resolved Tonight

We're betting tonight will be the best evening you've had all day.

Come and get your brain full of truth. We get to worship the God who's big enough to create the world, yet loving enough to save sinners like us!

We're back in Delaware room tonight (7pm) and for the rest of the semester. See you there!

Noodle Sockey Cancelled

Due to all the water falling from the sky, we're going to have to cancel Noodle Sockey tonight. We'll have to do it another time.

The Really Bad News

Last night, Joe spoke about the wrath of God. He reminded us that in order to appreciate the good news, we have to understand the bad news.


Compare his two key passages:

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth." (Romans 1:18)

...and...

"But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ"
(Ephesians 2:4-5)


This week...
- Let’s think about where we were before God grabbed us.
- Let’s think about who Jesus is and what he had to do to save us.
- Let’s thank God for his rich kindness to us!

Resolved Tonight

Hey folks! Due to the inclement weather Resolved has been moved to the Annex at Sovereign Grace Church of Indiana. We will be giving rides from the HUB Circle at 6:45 pm. See you there!!

-The Resolved Crew

Flagstone Theater

This week (the 9th) we're not meeting in the Delaware room, but at Flagstone Theater.

Flagstone Theater is that outdoor, stone stage outside of the Oakgrove. It's along Pratt drive near the construction.
You may have never noticed it before, but it's there (hopefully).


The following week (September 16th) we'll be back in the Delaware room. We'll be there for the rest of the year.

With questions, email benandjanmurphy@yahoo.com

Joe will be giving a great (hopefully) message on the book of Romans! See you at Flagstone!

Meeting Tonight
