D-Now

This weekend was Discipleship Now for the Lumberton churches and NEBC in Beaumont. It was a wonderful concept.

Normally D-Now involves a single church. Doing a large number of churches allowed it to be further reaching. We still had host homes with our church but did worship and missions with all churches!!!

I stayed with the High School Girls and we had a great time.

Once again it was a growing experience for our youth. We were in Sunday School, having breakfast, this morning and David looked over and noticed that our entire youth group was over together at the couches and new ones would join. There was no separation of many little clique type groups, like usual, just one big group all talking together.

Blessed to be a part and to have these experiences.

1If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. 3Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. 4Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
5Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: 6Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, 7but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. 8And being found in appearance as a man,he humbled himself and became obedient to death— even death on a cross! 9Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Phil. 2:1-11
