Alright, this is a picutre for all of you who are always complaining about how Ohio sucks so bad. I took this picture a while ago out in my backyard and am just now finally getting around to posting it up here. Anyways, that's not my point. This semester is quickly coming to a close. I've got 2 days next week and then thanksgiving break...then only 2 weeks left! So needless to say, the end-of-the-semester madness is almost in full swing. Luckily I think I've been keeping up pretty well. Andrew and Rebekah move into their house tomorrow, which is exciting. We've been over there constantly helping them paint and get things ready. I probably should have gone over today so that I could help out clean or something since I can't be there tomorrow, but I'm getting a head start on some of these papers due within the next few weeks. Tomorrow should be a fun day though. We've got church in the morning, then we're having worship team practice so that we can go to Ryan and Josh's show on Tuesday, then "the gathering" is tomorrow night.
The gathering is the tri-church event that's happening with Rivertree, First Friends, and First Christian. I think it's awesome that, even though there have been some struggles putting these together, that these three churches are making and effort to connect with eachother. It really saddens me that so many churches are at war with eachother instead of realizing that they are all part of the body of Christ. How awesome would it be if everyone could for once forget about their "church" and truly become the Church? No church wars, no feelings of superiority, no hatred, and no divisions. What if, for once, we saw churches combine instead of divide, and work together instead of against eachother? Then people could
really see the unity and love talked about in the Bible coming from the Church.
