New Genesis Study: Thursday, August 6th!

Hey Guys -- check it out, you now have two opportunities to get plugged in to a Men's Study - for us, by us! Small group studies are one of the best ways to get to know other guys at Lamb's and create friendships with other believers. We spend too much time in the world taking in all its junk - we need friends that are believers and are like-minded...come join in.

Starting, Thursday, August 6th at 7pm - Gregg Fosgett will be facilitating a study through Genesis. This study will be at The Lamb's Fellowship in room C6 or C7 - just come ready for some great time of worship through scripture and prayer. If you haven't met him, Gregg is a really neat guy. He was actually the catalyst to the Tuesday night study over a year ago. Gregg, myself, Chris McMurtry and Rich Payne starting meeting on the back porch of Lamb's as an alternative to the Tuesday morning crew. We have kept this thing going for over a year now and it is time to expand. Check your bulletin and this blog for more information about the new studies.

Stay Strong

Tuesday Nights are en fuego!

Wow, we have been soooo blessed at the Tuesday night study....James snaps off some important truths to us right off the bat in Chapter 1 and then goes so much deeper in Chapter 2.

While discussing the intro to James, we talked about the book being:
(1) a "how to" book of / for the Christian life
(2) one of the most practical books of the NT: offers instruction & exhortation to Christians who are experiencing problems.

James speaks of prejudice, improper speech, judging one another, leaving God out of our plans and even bitterness .... already had two great weeks of discussion!

The recipients are the 12 tribes and from Nelson's Compact Commentary this is defined as:

• Jewish / Christians living outside of Palestine
• Most of which seem to have been poor & suffering from oppression by fellow Jews
• Some of them had been imprisoned & deprived of possessions & livelihood
• Under these conditions, they fell into worldliness, fought amongst each other, favored the rich over the poor & lost their original love for one another
• If works = natural result of faith
• If we truly believe, we would act on belief
• We need to get out lives in line with what we believe...

Join on Tuesday night at RJ's Sizzlin Steer (6:45pm)...next week chapter 3

Mens Bfast this Saturday

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to remind you all that we will be having a Men's Breakfast this weekend on July 4th. I will be bringing a message about manly stuff, so you don't want to miss it! We have changed the time to 7 am so that we can all get up a little later...if you have time - come by a little early and help Lance Ladd and me cook up some grub and set up the room!

Many hands make light work...

stay strong
see you soon
Rob
