Hello everyone. Meeting 4, 10-28-09. Attendance basically 16 therefore we increased in size. We had more Evergreen people yay... Kristen led another fun worship time. After this, Daniel introduced the message.
This week he went into James 2:14-24. Unfortunately this week there were no chunks. Nevertheless, he did remind us that we should set good examples. Here's the catch: most Christians are known for what they don't do, (ex. not smoking, drinking, swearing, ect...) not for what they DO. I thought that was a very good point. Verse 18: "because of faith, he does what he does" After this, Daniel puts on a video. In this video, the guy explains that many Christians go through life thinking that they're saved so they don't have to worry about what they do. The sad thing is there are people that have died today that went to hell that never thought they'd go there. They might have gone to church all their life, but never took the opportunity to have a personal relationship with Jesus. The guy in the video is reminding us that as Christians, we need to DO good work and show Jesus to others through our actions. He is not, however, telling us that we are saved by works.
After this video, Daniel gave us 15 minutes of silence to try and figure out where we are at in our faith. For me personally, I found out that I was ready to take God's call and take some steps for him!
Great vid Daniel!

Great summary Nick! Man, this is one of those things, which if you truly understand it, then it can change your life and your community. Imagine if every Christian lived up to their full potential in their faith.
