Mens Bible Study
On Tuesday nights, Myself together with two guys, Andrew (the dean of men) and Patrick (a student) head up an on-campus mens bible study. We have been meeting together on Tuesday nights with a handful of guys (if you have been around the church long enough you know getting guys to meet together can be like pulling teeth, but the Lord has blessed us with a faithful few) to look at “Being a man of God” we take turns teaching and open it up to the guys here as an outlet to teach on occasion. Sometimes in bible college it is hard to stay sharp concerning teahing because you are always receiving so much information but not getting opportunity to pour out. So we have been looking at characters all though out the bible and it is sort of a nice change as opposed to the constant verse-by-verse and in depth teaching received during the week. Most of all it is our desire to be Godly men in a world that so often seems to be lacking such. It is our desire to strengthen the small student body and we are aware that in this sort of setting, guys sort of set the tone as brothers for the semester. After worship and study we spend time praying together and this seems to be the most fruitful. I know that a strong spiritual health amongst the men on campus really encourages the entire student body to seek the Lord. We just had a guys BBQ night and (big surprise) all of the guys showed up! We had a wonderful time fellowshipping over meat and song and of course God’s word. It sort of makes me laugh because all you have to do is set up a grill and you have no problem getting guys to come over, in fact there more than eager to come. Praise the Lord!
