Coffee House!

Last night was great! Thanks for joining us for our 1st UTURN Coffee House of the year. Last night we discussed how to become godly men and women in light of the distracting culture that surrounds us. We also discussed how we, ourselves, can be distracted by "lust of the flesh", "lust of the eyes", and pride in lifestyle". Each of these we need o be aware of and have a plan to prepare to defend against each of them. One thing we can do is spend time in the Word of God as we seek to build our relationship with Him. Another important strategy is to find our identity in Christ and not in what we do or what we have. Finally, we need to surround ourselves with like minded people (Christ Followers).
This is just the beginning in a long process of becoming like Christ and approaching each critical decision in life from a Christ-Like perspective. I hope you will join us next month as we look at Ephesians 6:10-18 and discuss the fact that God gives you as a Christian everything needed to battle spiritual forces in the world.
Check this site daily for updates on our study in LXVI and once a week for our Critical Decisions discussion. Stay plugged in to what God is doing in and through UTURN Ministries! You are all an important part of what God wants to do here!
