Nutrition Tip Tuesday

Calories are a short term game at best. Around here, we're in this thing for the long haul.

CICO (calories in calories out) proponents like to cite the immutable laws of thermodynamics as the ultimate reason that all nutrition practice really boils down to energy balance.

Too bad calories don't account for Entropy... if you want to be BETTER, you'll need to be do BETTER than calories!

Don't do this thing alone!

Spring 2022 Bible Study Kickoff!
Challenge: What battle from your past was won so that you could face this season with courage and leadership?





Words To Hide In Your Heart This Week:
“Then David said to Ahimelech, “Then have you not here a spear or a sword at hand? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste.” 9 And the priest said, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you struck down in the Valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you will take that, take it, for there is none but that here.” And David said, “There is none like that; give it to me.”
- 1 Samuel 21:9

Discussion Questions “The Chosen Lesson 1”
What did you HIGHLIGHT in your bible since last time? Why?

What do you fear, and why? How does Psalm 139 speak to your fear?



Reread Isaiah 6:3. What do the words “holy” “Lord”, and “glory” say about God? If we have a relationship with Him, What does that mean about the things WE FEAR by comparison?




Israel continued to rebel against God even as He continued calling them into relationship. What does this mean about God’s love?




At this point in the story, which of the flawed-but-called characters do you identify with most? Peter? Mary? Nicodemus? Do you feel worthy of being called by Jesus? Why or why not?




Read Romans 3:10-12. Regardless of our performance, what does the Word say about how we compare to a holy God?



What have you been rescued from? (Like Mary – a difficult personal history and pain? Like Simon/Andrew – Financial hardship? Like the Pharisees – Trying to save yourself? Like Matthew/Mary – darkness, addiction, desire for comfort and security, or some other sin cycle?) Do you still need rescuing? From what?


What prayers have been answered for you this week?
