"Classic" Small Group



Today was "small group" Wednesday. We met at Classic Coffee in Glendora. I'll start with my review of the coffee shop. I got a caramel frap and a blueberry scone. It was delicious! The people that work there are beyond kind and helpful. They have tables set up inside, outside and in a hallway between businesses. We chose the hallway because we wanted to be indoors, but also didn't want the distractions of the coffee shop. I had been there once before and had a pleasant experience and would definitely go again.

Today we studied Colossians 2:1-15 and reviewed last weeks scripture from Col. 1. We talked a lot about how we, as Christians, are not bound to the laws of this world. Our worldly, sinful lives died at the cross. We have been made new in Christ. This world and it's sinful ways will try to get us off track, but when we hold on to God's promise, He promises us His reward for us. Paul reminds us to be encouraging to one another to stay on track. Oh how I love the writings of Paul. God used him to do amazing things. Although he was born as Saul and started as an evil man, God called him to be a man of God and changed him completely from his old life as Saul to his new life as Paul. God can do that to anyone who cries out to him. He may not change our name, but he will make us a new creation. Praise God! Shawna
