October 24, 2008: Games Night

We went somewhere that cost money last week, so this week it was time to do something free. Which meant falling into the usual default, and having a games night. But we have to stop doing this; half the kids are sick and tired of games nights, and the other half are just in the gym playing basketball, and not being part of the group.

That being said, devotion was good. David used an example from a former atheist who is now a theist; he was convinced by various aspects of nature that the universe couldn’t possibly have formed randomly, there must have been a god behind it. However, he is not a Christian—he believes that there is a god, but doesn’t believe that Christianity is truth. David then read Romans 1:18–23 (which is just part of a larger passage). He said that even though this man was an atheist all his life—he has been very influential among atheists since 1950—and even though it was an amazing thing for him to change his mind, and decide that there is a god, it’s still not enough. This passage says that he is in fact without excuse, if he doesn’t come before God and repent, and accept Jesus as his Saviour. The kids seemed to be paying close attention, and there were a few questions.

We pray that the kids will come to the leaders and ask, if they have any questions. Or, if they’re ready, just go to the Lord and be saved!
