Things went great again today and tonight. I got a 2 hour nap in. Holy cow, I didn’t know I was that tired. I spoke on breaking out of our boxes tonight. Kids seemed to respond really well. Had a ROCKIN’ time of worship following the message. I challenged them to really let loose in their praise to God. They met the challenge. One more day and then I’m headed back to Element.

#5 Kids of people you remember being at camp with you, are now at the camp you’re speaking at.
#4 You accidently walk into the girls dorm (thinking it’s yours) and you’re afraid, not of getting caught, but just looking like the freaky old guy. (Took me a second to figure out why all this girls stuff was in my room. lol)
#3 You mention Ross Perot from the 1992 election and realize most of the students you’re talking to weren’t even born yet.
#2 A student says “Do you know my mom?” I say “Why should I?” “Oh, she went to the same college as you. She’s in her 40’s so I thought you’d know her” WHAT? I guess I’m catching up Grant. Didn’t know I looked that old.
#1 You’re love handles are sore the next day after playing basketball. I didn’t know fat could be sore. WOW!
Old, but not as old as…(naaah I won’t say it. But you’re thinking of them)

Hey Element Church! 10 Days in and 18 to go as we join in One Prayer. Today’s prayer is “Lord make us compassionate!” Please pray for the churches on the calendar as well. Today’s Bible reading is Acts 10. You can read it online HERE.
Acts 10:2 — Another cool thing to be said about you. “He was a devout, God fearing man, as was everyone in his household. He gave generously to the poor and prayed regularly to God.”
Acts 10:15 — I think this statement was more than about JUST food. “Do not call something unclean if God has made it clean.” Peter was about to go into someones home (Cornelius) that according to his Jewish custom it was “unclean” for him to do. But God had made Cornelius CLEAN!
Acts 10:26 — Again we see the change in Peter. Someone bowed at his feet yet he didn’t want ANY accolades. “I’m just a man like you!”
Acts 10:35 — God accepts ANYONE who fears Him and does what is right.
Acts 10:36 — There is peace with God through Jesus. Isn’t that good news?
Following Christ,
Jeff
