Quiet Strength

Last night, 14 men from our Riverside body met to study and pray... and watch football...

Our inaugural edition of MNMBSMNF (Monday Night Men's Bible Study & Monday Night Football - I know, I've got to find a better acronym!) was incredible! We are using Dungy's "Quiet Strength" as a foundation for our study, and it is a very well-written book... the study guide is also very well-designed...

Our cable at the church does not have ESPN (so we didn't watch either of the football games which aired last night, but no one seemed to care), but we are adding it for the football season so we can have some fun and fellowship after our prayer and Bible study.

We have been doing this MNMBSMNF for 4 years, though we did not host it last year... but the group of men which met last night seem very dedicated to this time of study and prayer and fellowship.

Please pray for this study... it is a vitally important part of spiritual growth for the men who participate, and for the larger Riverside body. The prayer time is especially meaningful and powerful!

We believe this is a wonderful vehicle for inviting your friends to a very non-threatening gathering of men who simply want to be better husbands, daddies, leaders, followers and citizens.

I feel very blessed to be a part of such a group...

Blessings!
