Doing Life together

Today, our small group along with two additional NewPointe staffers (John Bunn and Danny Bunnelle) spent the afternoon serving together in a big way. We through NewPointe were able to present the Coshocton Boxing Club with an official sized boxing ring. The club does some great work with the youth and we've been able to develope a relationship with the club owners.

Getting together with my small group each week to learn and grow though studing differnent topics is a vital part of group life. But when we serve together is when we bond. I can't imagine doing life without being in a small group. You need a group of beilvers in your life that you can laugh with, share with, and support through lifes ups and downs.

Today we shared some "up time" in helping others. After an day of good work, we went back to Steve & Sherry's (a couple in our small group) house for a great dinner.

The 3 big take-aways for me from this day were.
  1. A small group is a vital need in my relationship with God.
  2. It's a blessing to serve with friends
  3. Somethings the doors God opens make me laugh. (A boxing club???)
Here are some pictures from the day.
