I'm speaking on the campus of Ball State University in Muncie, IN this week. The Heartland Regional Student Convention is a gathering of Christian school students from all over this region. They are here primarily to compete in hundreds of different events. I get to be their pastor for the week. Today's schedule had me speaking two times. The first session was a "let's get acquainted" kinda thing. While I had some fun giving the students some little-known, trivial information about myself, I also used it as a teaching time. I talked about the danger of knowing stuff about Christ, but not really knowing Him.
In tonight's session I challenged the students from James chapter 1. I talked about the enemy being a master of fascination. James talks about being "drawn away" and "enticed". Satan would have us continually fascinated with his junk; he really wants to take us from fascination to assassination. Here's my point...don't play with the devil. He doesn't play fair. He's out to get you - beware! I'll be back to Game Day for the Glory of God tomorrow.

Such a small world. Just catching up on some of your writing and noticed you were in Muncie, IN this week! My girlfriend was born and raised in Muncie... and is a Ball State graduate.
ReplyDeleteIt's great you have the opportunity to speak with, mentor, and relate to such a large group of young people.
Take care.
