God's Good is better than Our Good!!

Tonight (Thursday) was a great night on Kelley's Island @ Camp Patmos!!

We went to the sandy beach with the campers and ate walking tacos.
Krista, Jadyn and I went out on the banana boat.
A couple of counselors shared some great stories about how God is working in their campers lives.

I have the opportunity to preach two messages from God's Word to the campers!
The BIG IDEA from this mornings message was "Sin affects the entire world." 
The BIG WORD was covenant.
The Bible stories were Noah and the Flood & the Tower of Babel.

The BIG IDEA from this evening's message was "Life with Christ in this world is a fight but we have won battle."
The BIG WORD was persevere.
The Bible passage was the Armor of God and Ephesians 6.

Especially throughout the evening message I wanted to remind the campers and staff that
God's Good is better than Our Good.  
God's plan is so much better than my plan.

Tomorrow morning's message is meant to challenge and help the campers grow in their relationship with God after they leave the island!

Tomorrow night I am going to be speaking to the junior campers and middle school campers about Treasuring Christ!

Please continue to pray for the campers.  Pray they would put into action what they hear.
