The pain people feel going through separation and divorce can be both overwhelming and devastating. People who understand those feelings lead Divorce Care (”DC”), a 13-week support group in an interactive seminar format. You’ll learn how to deal with the pain of your past and look forward to rebuilding your life. DC meets every Wednesday evening from 6:00-7:30 p.m.

Likewise, children hurting because their parents are separated or divorced can also find help at DivorceCare for Kids (”DC4K”). DC4K is aimed at children, ages 5 – 12, and meets at the same time as DC on Wednesday evenings.

DC and DC4K will begin a new 13-week cycle on Wednesday, February 6, 2008 from 6:00-7:30 pm.

As we close out this Holiday season and begin to look forward to Christmas consider this quote by John Piper. 

If Christian ethics means for us primarily avoiding bad behavior and staying home in our comfortable houses, we will meet very few non-Christians, and when we do, our words of witness will be weak because they are backed up with no labor of love. But if our love of Christ and his for us drives us into action to meet the needs of refugees and the world’s hungry, then we will cross paths with unbelievers and our witness will have great power because it will be certified by active love. So never play off evangelism against other biblically mandated acts of love, namely, feeding the poor and doing good to all (Galatians 6:10). - John Piper Read More…

Please support the youth service project “Homes for LIFE” as they try to raise enough money to build a home for a family in Nicaragua.

In Nicaragua, we’re not just building a house, we’re fulfilling a dream for families…the dream of owning a REAL HOME! With your support and in cooperation with Life Outreach International, our Homes for LIFE outreach will build 300 brand new homes for families and children living in extreme poverty.

These concrete homes are built to last a minimum of 25 years in the roughest weather conditions. To provide a home for only $3,600 means your gift goes a long way! (more…)

D-Now was an incredible success, thanks to everyone who had a hand in making this very large event come together! Jenn and I wanted this retreat experience for our students more than anything, and you guys helped us pull it off. Students, you were worth every minute of hard work we put into this weekend and we look forward to all God has in store in the future. We will soon have pictures on the website and the highlight video.
