The 4 Day Challenge Is On!

So this may not seem like a big deal but it it really is...
On Memorial Day Weekend I had organized a "Family Adventure Weekend," A white water rafting trip on the Kennebec River in Jackman, Maine. We brought along 34 people from our church, most of whom had never been white water rafting before - It was awesome! As soon as I get some of the pics I will post them here. The camping was great, the rafting was incredible, but the 4 day challenge is by far the best thing to come out of the trip. My dear friend and running buddy Shawn issued the 4 day challenge to everybody on the trip, some just smiled and said "that's a good idea" others gladly accepted. Here is the 4 day challenge: Exercise your body and spirit 4 days out of 7 every week. That means run, work out, do Pilates, whatever 4 days in a week - Sunday to Saturday AND have a quiet time with the Lord and His Word 4 days out of 7 - church services don't count.

I had planned on doing a little expository sermonette the next morning which the Lord, I think, prevented me from doing, but I had no reason to do so. We had no need to GO TO church we were BEING the Church. Mutual accountability among friends and brothers now that's Church!

Here are some questions for you to answer in your blog:

1. What is your greatest spiritual gift and how do you use it?

2. If Hollywood was making your life story into a movie, what songs would be on the soundtrack?

3. What is the most embarrassing thing you’ve ever done on purpose?

4. If you were appointed as the CEO of any major corporation for one year, which corporation would it be, and what big initiative would you undertake?

5. If you could go back in time to the Old Testament, what event would you like to witness?

Have fun with these!
