BETTER THAN THE BLARNEY STONE?

 

 

 


The Blarney Stone has been around for hundreds of years, has been kissed by millions of people and has all kinds of tradition, but does that make it better than our post? The Blarney Post has been around for sixty years, has been kissed by one and kissing it will not bring you any luck, but who cares? Is there really any difference? The post has been supporting the church for sixty years, reminds me of the fact that Jesus has also been supporting the church over the last sixty years.
The Battalion year rolls on and it always amazes me how God just keeps bringing new guys out to Battalion. Some guys only come once and some guys keep coming and become part of the core group, and either way they are exposed to God's Word and that makes everything that we do worth it. We started the night with bump which is a good game to get lot's of guys involved. After squad meetings we played handball and D-Pod and I were taking a beating from Charlie(Charlie was trying to soften us up), although I don't think he scored to many times(I was playing net and D-Pod was playing defense). The score ended one to nothing, like every other time that we have played handball. We were playing next goal wins, and after what seemed like ten minutes Charlie's team scored to take the win.(I guess Charlie's strategy worked.)
Aaron led the Bible study and the passage that he was speaking on was 1Timothy 4:1-4. The passage talks about people abandoning the faith and following deceiving spirits. Aaron pointed out that if we use God`s word as a guide that we will not be deceived.
Spencer(Big Chris`s little brother)capped off two big weeks at Btln by winning Bulldog!(Last week Spencer won the lightweight division at the Royal Rumble)Congrats Spencer!
