Soul Surfer - Lesson 2

8/31/2011

0 Comments

 
As we began looking inside the story of Bethany Hamilton, we saw from lesson 1 how her faith was awesome even from an early age.  Even before her accident she was asking God to use her and identify His purpose for her life.  As we get ready for lesson 2, we will see how Bethany handles the tragedy of the shark attack, learns to deal with life with one arm, and God’s plans for her.

                            “It’s the perfect time…to get back in the water.” –Bethany Hamilton

Sometimes when we face tragedy, it’s how quickly we pick ourselves back up and continue that defines our faith in God.  Let Him be your rock and foundation today.  We can’t change what happens in our lives, but we can look at the positive of how God is going to use those circumstances for good in our lives.

Matthew 7:24-27    “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”

A Special Thanks!
A special thanks for those students who volunteered to go to Belden this past Saturday to help clean up our friend’s back yard.  We appreciate your hard work!

Soul Surfer - Lesson 1

8/23/2011

0 Comments

 
Our FBC Student Ministries had a great week last week with welcome back night for our 40+ students on hand and now we are officially back to business.  We have a busy semester in store for our teens and much to do in preparation for next summer’s mission trip.  We already have 1 fundraiser completed and a second one on the way with the selling of our Lee County Smart Cards for $15 each. We have a second yard sale set for October 8th and will post more information regarding it when the time is closer. 

Soul Surfer lesson 1
For the next couple of weeks we will study the faith of Bethany Hamilton and discuss her story as portrayed in the movie Soul Surfer.  I hope that all of our students will see how her situation from the shark attack improved her relationship with God to an even stronger level than it was before.
Sunday School
If you are in the 7th grade through 12th grade we want to invite you to attend our Sunday School class each week at 10am in the Amphitheatre.  We are starting a new video Bible study dealing with the life of Joseph.
