Hey CCNers!

We just got back yesterday from the Way of the Master Deeper Conference! We got to hit the streets of Atlanta on Saturday night with a team of about 500 Christians, including some new friends from Indiana!

We also got to meet up with our friend James from CCN's bootcamp, Repent and Witness 2008! God blessed us with a refreshing, challenging, and encouraging weekend!

Join us tonight in CE 268 (note room change) from 6-8pm! We are going to be talking about the justice of God as it relates to presenting the Gospel. This Thursday we will be having our Justice Discussion at Democracy Plaza from 2-3pm! Keep promoting this event whenever and whereve you can! (In addition to promoting the Gospel, of course!)

Come out and join the fun and take a stand for Jesus Christ!

“Brethren, do something; do something, do something! While societies and unions make constitutions, let us win souls. I pray you, be men of action all of you. Get to work and quit yourselves like men. Old Suvarov’s idea of war is mine: `Forward and strike! No theory! Attack! Form a column! Charge bayonets! Plunge into the center of the enemy! Our one aim is to win souls; and this we are not to talk about, but do in the power of God!’” Charles Spurgeon

Next Meeting!

Hey all!

Monday Night, 6-8pm in CE 406 (Campus Center)!

Topic: "Why I choose to believe the Bible."

Don't miss it! It's gonna be FUN!

Hope to see you all there!

Tuesday we have prayer in CE 306 from 10-11:30am.
This is a great time to prayer for our upcoming events and for our obedience and faithfulness to God by fulfilling the great commission.


Next week's lesson = the justice of God... a fundamental doctrine of Christianity and an essential element to evangelizing biblically! We will be preparing for our event on 10/23!

The Ultimate Purpose for the Universe

God’s ultimate purpose for the universe and for all of history and for your life is to display the glory of Christ in its highest expression, namely, in his dying to make a rebellious people his everlasting and supremely happy bride. To say it another way, God’s ultimate purpose in creating the world and choosing to let it become the sin-wracked world that it is, is so that the greatness of the glory of Christ could be put on display at Calvary where he bought his rebellious bride at the cost of his life.
I base this statement of God’s ultimate purpose on several texts. For example, Revelation 13:8 where John refers to God’s writing names “before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain.” So in God’s mind Christ was already slain before the creation of the world. This was his plan from the beginning. Why?
Because in being slain “to make a wretch his treasure”—to make a rebel his bride—the glory of his grace would shine most brightly, and that was his ultimate purpose according to Ephesians 1:4-6, “In love he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ . . . to the praise of the glory of his grace.”

-John Piper

Do Not Worry Matthew 6:25-34

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
“So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
