DAWG Days

Hey SOS Squad! Just finished Day 10 and had to write about it! So how 'bout that 1/2 day alone with God? Have you started to figure out when you will get it done? Remember, if you can't find time to pray and be in the Word...YOU'RE TOO BUSY! The whole 1/2 day w/ God is somethin' we like to call a DAWG Day. DAWG meaning Day Alone With God, or in this case...1/2 Day Alone With God. Show God HE'S #1 in your world by setting the time aside NOW! We continue to pray for you as you stick it to the devil (I don't capitalize the loser's name). If you feel like you're under attack right now then consider yourself blessed! That means that your SOS commitment has the enemy on the ropes! Keep punchin'!
Much love to you all!

BIBLE SURFING?

Hello Puppets! Greetings from the land of the first-time bloggers! Rob Dawg here regaining my composure after losing about :45 of bloggage. That's correct...3/4 of an hour of my life lost in the blog abyss! So let me show you all how much I love you by RETYPING AS MUCH AS I CAN REMEMBER FROM MY PREVIOUS SEMI-POST! Anyway...I love Justin's writing and all that, but I believe he missed one in yesterday's (Day 8) reading. No offense J-Doo, but "Bible Surfing" kinda just skims the surface. Actually, that's what surfing is...skimming the surface of the water right? Well, my feeble brain is gonna lock-onto the idea of "Bible Diving"! I don't want us to hover over the top of scripture. Let's step-off into the depths of God's love letter to us! Romans 11:33 says, "Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!" That's where we uncover the mysteries of this awesome God that we serve...IN THE DEEP! So...let's dive-in! (I would belt out a few bars of SCC's Dive, but I'll restrain myself) You're welcome Clair! Anyway...what a week of SOS bliss for me! 47 of you have made the commitment to seek God in extreme fashion...thank you for steppin' out of the box of normalcy! For those of you who added this week, here's the latest Tag Teen list. And if you have three in your group, feel free to do a true Tag Teen type of accountability.

Below you will find your Tag Teen member(s). Please be in contact with him/her every single day. You may do so by phone, text message, email or by seeing them at school, etc. Be creative. A note on their windshield or a treat left for them in a class may be just the encouragement that they need for the day.

We have the phone numbers and contact information for your Tag Teen members but we don't want to publish those numbers on the internet. If you do not have the contact info for yours, call or text Rob or call Kaci at the church and someone will have it for you. If your name is not posted, it may be that we don't have your commitment card yet. Please contact Rob as soon as possible if you choose to participate and you are not listed below. We will get you a Tag Teen ASAP.

Tag teens will be either two or three people as follows:

  • Caity Beeson/Cari Gillette/Madeline Smith
  • Clair Stephens/Josie Gerlach
  • Cheyenne Lichenstein/Kaiti Firkins
  • Christine Bean/Sara Gillett
  • Holly Davis/Katelyn McInturff

Today's memory verse:
