The price for tickets is $24. This includes travel to Atlanta and admission to the game and the concert. Food is not included, so bring money for that. We will be leaving right after morning service on September 6.  If you dont’ attend church here, then make sure you are here by 11:30AM or you could be left. We should be back to church sometime between 7 and 8 that night. See Pastor Gabe if you are interested in going. We need your money by Thursday, September 3.

With all of that being said, we realized  that we couldn’t let him leave without a final prank. And the more we thought about it, we realized he hasn’t been pranked at all since he has been here, so this would have to be really good. So, several of us (and when I say us, I may or may not have been involved…even though I am in the pictures, think photoshop) decided to get together to leave him a present in his office. That present amounted to about 2,800 sticky notes on the wall, several hunder ballons on the floor and floating on the ceiling, saran wrap around bookshelves and chairs, and his keyboard modified to be in alphabetical order. Let’s just say everyone had a good laugh when they got into the office that day. Check out the pictures below, and then the P. Matt Prank Album on our site for more.

Oh, and you know that you can’t let students get a way with this sort of behaivor, so check out how we got back at three students whom will remain nameless (Korin, Hannah, and Justin).

The challenge of life isn’t avoiding pain (since that’s impossible). The real challenge is how to deal with pain when it happens – how to manage and heal from the wounds life inflicts on us. This series helps us recognize and deal with some of the more painful experiences in our lives. And most importantly, we’ll see how God can take our pain and use it to make beauty.

This explains a lot…I mean, come on….you know it happens.

Incredible.  Unbelievable. Extraordinary. None of these words describe the work of Jesus quite like the word “miraculous.“  This series will take us through four of the craziest miracles in Jesus’ minstry – and the lasting impact those lessons have for us today.

Friday was our first morning of skiing, and it was brutal.The snow was really coming down and very windy. By the afternoon it cleared up for a great afternoon of skiing. Saturday was another good day of skiing, but a little less crowded. Both nights (Friday and Saturday) we had the option of riding the shuttle to the nearby mountain of Silver Creek, where we could do night skiing. The resort was very nice, with a village right in the center that had nice dinning (expensive) and nice stores (again expensive). It was a great trip, and I can’t wait to go back next year.

On a side note, I still have all of the videos from National Fine Arts in Charlotte, and I am slowly get them ripped to put online. So, continue to check the website for more information.
