Welcome to 2012

We got back to business last night with a great evening of games, songs, and Bible study.  We discussed what it means to receive God's "Call".  We also found Bible passages that describe many different reactions to God's call.  We will continue this discussion in the coming weeks, so look for other stories to add to our list.

1) Noah called to build an ark.
2) Abraham called to sacrifice Isaac.
3) Moses called to free Isrealite slaves.
4) David called to be king.
5) Jonah called to preach to people of Ninevah.
6) Mary called to be the mother of Jesus.
7) Disciples called to follow Jesus.
8) Zaccheus called to stop bad business practices.
9) Paul called to stop persecuting Christians.
