New Website - Thundering Words

December 17th, 2008

Our friends at the North American Mission Board, Mark Lydecker and Mike Licona are working on a new website.  Give me your feedback on what you think.

This site is designed to be an evangelism resource that we can use on our campus.  It is in the very early stages of development so your input will be critical.

Finals Week Prayer

December 8th, 2008


As you get into this week know that I am praying for you and as you think about it say this prayer for others.

Dear Heavenly Father, LORD God Almighty,

You are awesome and mighty.  You are in control of all things and ordain all things.  And you love each of us intimately and deeply.  Please look into our lives this week and be with us.  Help us to be able to concentrate and study.  Give us the ability to set aside quality undistracted time to put in the necessary work to learn what needs to be learned.  Allow us to complete the projects and papers.  Allow us to be successful the first time.  Allow problems to be figured out quickly without confusion.  Allow us to reproduce without anxiety and stress that which we learned this term.

Lord, look over us and remove the chaos that is life outside of Drexel for this week.  Do not allow stuff to interfere with our purpose of studying and testing.  Give us the ability and resources to devote ourselves entirely to the exam process.

Lord, allow us to get the proper rest.  Allow us to take breaks when necessary.  Allow us to realize that we learn the best when we are in the good physical shape.  Give us your peace so that the chaos that happens around doesn’t happen to us.

Lord, no matter how we do this week and this term, allow us to realize that our value comes directly from you and our relationship with you.  Our worth as a person does not come directly from our grade.  Pass or fail, A or B, we are valuable because of Your love and Your love is what makes our worth.

Lord, as we study allow us to realize that we can Love you with all our minds.  Help us to study as an act of worship of God.

8 PM Who Is This Jesus – A Discussion Based Study of the Life of Jesus in the Multi – Purpose Room of Kelly Dormitory.  This discussion based Bible Study is designed for new students @ Drexel but is open to everyone.  We will be talking about the Life of Jesus in a way that will allow both Jesus “experts” and “beginners” to join in.  Tonight there will be Pizza and Soda.  Come on out and bring a friend.  If you don’t have a friend we can loan you one.  Tim McJilton and Mike Bates will be leading.  If you need more information contact them at trm43@drexel.edu or mlb74@drexel.edu .

Tuesdays:

1 PM Mid-Day Prayer @ Starbucks in Pearlstein.  Brian will be holding a short discussion/devotional and prayer time.  It will be a great time to refocus yourself during the middle of the day and if you are a commuter you don’t have to stay late.  Typically we will start @ 1:15 and end at 1:45 but this time will be extremely flexible to fit into your day.

6 – 8 PM Ecclesiastes Bible Study – 1st week 9/30 we will meet in the P&P Office 48E in the Basement of Creese Student Center.  The Ecclesiastes Bible Study is our male discipleship group.  We will continue walking through one of the most interesting books of the Bible verse by verse.  This is a great group of guys who hold each other accountable to what we say we believe and how we say we should live.

Thursdays:

5 – 6:30 PM Women’s Discipleship Group - Ross Commons Rm 314.  Unfortunately the location is still undetermined but this will be a great time where Drexel Women can come together and discuss how to be excellent at all that they do:  excellence in their Christian walk, excellence in their academics, excellence in their careers and excellence in their social world.  This is  a great group of women who really care and support each other as they balance being a Christian Women and a Drexel Dragon.
