Important Info:
Another Push for Family Weekend Kids Min Volunteers - We currently cannot offer enough Kids Min care for the number of people who have signed up to attend Family Weekend. To serve the actively-raising-children parents of CBCTV, we need to have volunteers for the Kids Min classrooms on Friday evening and Saturday morning. We cannot expand our offerings until we have confirmed volunteers for the various rooms.
If you have people in your ministry or Life Group who won’t be attending, can you send this form to them with a request to help ASAP? We want to ensure that we can provide childcare to everyone who needs it so that everyone who wants to attend Family Weekend can.
Don’t Forget to Register for Life Group Evangelism - SIGN UP HERE - Only 3 of 19 Life Groups have registered to go door-to-door with our evangelism team one Saturday between now and October 29th. How it works: You register your Life Group to go out on a specific Saturday here and communicate when you’ll go out with the Evangelism Team (10am or 1pm). Then have your group show up at the church offices and go out as a group, with the evangelism team, into the surrounding neighborhoods to invite others to church and share the gospel. This is a great way to grow together as a group and foster personal evangelism.
A Look at the Life Group Games Stage - Life Group leaders, we’re very excited to have your group participate in the 2nd annual Life Group Games. So much so that we put your name on the stage (see below). We’ve been working to create some great games that everyone can participate in (and win)!
Application Questions:
Summer in the Psalms
Giving Up Control
Psalm 115
Read Psalm 115:1-3. What situations or circumstances push you to functionally try to "take control" of your life? How should the sovereignty of God shape the way that we handle circumstances that are ultimately out of our control?
What does trying to "take control" of our lives and circumstances reveal about our view of God?
Read Psalm 115:4-8. What "idols" are we tempted to fashion when we feel like our life is "out of control?"
Read Psalm 115:9-18. What is the connection between praise and trust? How does trusting in God help us "relinquish control" to God?
