Posted by COM Blogger in Resources, Sunday School on October 12, 2009
Continuing in our series on heroes and heroines of the Christian Faith, Elliot spoke about George Mueller. George Mueller grew up in Great Britain and lived a wild life as a child. His life was transformed by the grace of God while he was attending seminary and someone asked him to attend a Bible study. He gave his life away to others until the day he died. His story is one of great encouragement for believers today.
BULL Meeting – Games People Play: Performance
Posted by COM Blogger in Campuses, Resources on September 18, 2009
For our first BULL meeting of the year at Northwestern, Elliot Stokes opened our semester-long series called “games people play.” He started talking about the game we play of performing. We perform for God, we perform for other people, and it is usually done to build the kingdom of self.
He talked about the dangers of performing, why we perform, and the way out of performing. One typical response to our sin of performing for people would be that we need to now perform for God. That response only makes our problem worse. Rather we need to realize that Jesus performed for us, so we are free from our need to perform.
You can hear this talk here or download it from our iTunes podcast. We had a few problems with the audio at the meeting, so please excuse the short lapses in the talk.
