It is the night after and time for another update. Last night we tried a new game at Battalion, we call it Stickball. It is a combination of baseball and cricket. There is a baseball tee in the middle of the gym and all you have to do is hit the tennis ball off of the tee and run to one of the walls and back to the tee, one run scored. As long as you don't get tagged or hit with the ball you can keep running the bases(you can also stop at the tee but then you are done for the inning). It is a little complicated to explain, which was pretty clear last night. It took until the third inning before the guys started to catch on. Stickball needs some work but I think it will be a really good game once we work out the kinks.
Our journey through 1Timothy in the Bible studies has brought us to chapter 4.
1Timothy 4:13,15,16 - Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching. Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress. Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save yourself and your hearers.
This passage has so much in it, we are supposed to give ourselves wholly to studying God's word so that there will be progress in our lives. The people around us should notice a difference in how we live our lives and they should be able to see some progress. The last thing is that our lives should match what we believe. This is something that we all need to work on.
Zac finished the night with a win in Bulldog! Congrats to Zac! I was just glad that he showed up, Zac has had some loss of vision in one eye. It is getting better, but let's continue to pray for Zac.
After Battalion the leaders and Non-Coms went to the Station for rootbeers and Cross Trax. As many of you know, not very much gets planned at these meetings but that doesn't matter, it is a time to be encouraged. One thing the guys decided was that we would probably do hoodies again. Ya I know, we all have too many hoodies and we have already done two shirts this year but can you ever have to much Btln merch? Anyways we are working on the design and as soon as I have it I will post it on the blog.
One more thing, get working on those verses!
