Article of the Week

Smartphone Addiction and Our Spiritual ADD

Song of the Week

Memory Verse of the Week

I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.  Do not be conformed to this world,  but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:1-2)

Last week: Romans 10:14-15

Prayer Requests & Praises

  • Pray for our brothers and sisters in Libya who are being persecuted for their faith. Pray that as they are being tested that they would be still and have a strong foundation in God.
  • Pray for CBS and CBS servant team as they are thinking about who to ask to serve CBS next year. May those asked be ready to be equipped in their hearts to serve God and that CBS is supportive of the new leadership in the coordinators and servant team.
  • Thank the Lord for all the support and love students have been pouring out onto the students affected by the fire on Stewart Ave. May those affected be able to feel God’s love and that recovery go smoothly.
  • Praise God for all the evangelistic events that happened this weekend: Nabeel Qureshi and Coffeehouse. May we not leave those curious alone after these events, that we follow up and grow them up to be disciples.

In Christ,

Stephen & Jevon
