Frontline 12/2

This week:
Tonight we talked a little more about the book of Job.  We considered what our actions would look like if we had an attitude that everything and anything that we currently own was not actually ours.  Instead, we recognize that we are only stewards of what God has given us during this life.  It is ultimately all from God.

We also had a discussion about prayer.  Prayer is not something that we should have a cavalier attitude about, but it is not something scary or that we must perfect before we do it.  We grow in our ability to pray through prayer.

Next week:
Next week we will have a shortened meeting time for frontline.  I will aim to have the lesson done by 8:00 PM.  Starting after the lesson, we will have a time set aside to talk about forgiveness, reconciliation, and how to react to hurt in the Christian life.  This will be an optional time where we will consider specifically how to contextualize these things with someone leaving the church unexpectedly.

Announcements:
This friday is our sleepover!  Come to the ARC at 7:30 dressed as a hillbilly, and have your $10!

Change in Plans!  Girls should plan on bringing 2 dozen cupcakes to our dessert night fundraiser on the 16th--not 1 dozen as was previously stated.  Boys should still plan to bring a gallon of ice cream.
