is the title of our new series we are going to be
covering during the month of January.
This series is going address
biblical teaching about:
1. What happens one minute after you die?
2. What
does the Bible say about heaven?
3. What does the Bible say about
hell?
These are critical things that believers need to understand and be
able to explain and defend in a world that is full of many other views and false
teachings.
The Zone meets on Wednesday nights from 7-8:30 pm as well as
during all three services on Sunday morning- 8:30, 10:00, and 11:30am.
Christmas is over and school is back in session. The snow is blowing around and the tempature is the same as your shoe size. Winter time in Ohio isn't a very pleasent thing, but there is one bright ray of shining sunshine- KALAHARI! Just imagine the biggest, bestest, most wonderfulest place in Ohio and take that times ten= the best weekend retreat in the world.
Come join over 800+ students from all over Ohio as they join in worship, biblical teaching, small group discussion, and 85 degrees tempature in North America's largest indoor waterpark. Student's have experienced life change at this retreat and are excited to come back year after year.
You will get to spend two nights and three days meeting new people, hanging out with your friends, and meeting God in an incredible way. This year's theme is RED- red is bold, it is loud, it is passionate, it is different from the other colors. In some Bible's they have put Jesus' teaching in RED LETTERS. Come see how Jesus' words can change your life in a powerful way.
We will travel up from Grace Church Powell in buses on Friday March 5th. Rooms will be filled with 5 students and one adult. Students will need to pack a dinner or purchase supper when we arrive at Kalahari that night- no eatting on the bus :(
Students are also welcome to pack snacks for the weekend. All three meals on Saturday are provided and brunch on Sunday. Each room will have one adult who will help keep all the students safe and accounted for during the weekend. You will need to pack all of your things in one suitcase and bring an optional backpack to keep with you on the bus.

The biggestweapon our enemy uses against us in his attack of deception is pride. Pride has a way of blinding our sight and confusing our senses. I haveheard one of the first things pilots are taught is to never fly in cloud unlessyou are trained to use the instrument panel. Once in the cloud you loseyou sense of perception and have no bearings about which direction is up ordown. I heard Mike Davis tell a story about how he had his first cloudencounter. When he got his pilot’s license he went and rented a plan togo for his first solo flight. After take off the first thing he did wasgo “cloud hunting.” After few short seconds of flying into the cloud, helost all bearings and luckily escaped with his life.
When we thinkmore of ourselves than we ought to we lose the “God compose” that keeps usaligned with Him. We start thinking that we can handle things wecan’t and start doing things that we shouldn’t. Pride kills ourperception of reality and causes to be vulnerable to the deceptions of ourenemy.
