BTLN UPDATE

 

 

 


Jordan takes his first Helmet! Congrats Jordan! Zach started in the middle this week and he made it his mission to take out all the previous Helmet winners. Chris, Stevie, Zane and Dalton were all on the hit list. After a good game of Bulldog we had pizza to finish the night. As you can see the Pizza Sandwich lives on at Battalion 3739!
This week we played football in the gym, I guess it has been a while since we have played it because most guys don't ever remember playing football in the gym. On my team's first drive Zane got us an early lead with a nice catch in the end zone putting us up 7-0. Jeremy's team responded with big catches by Dalton and Devin giving them a 14-7 lead. We had other big plays by Zane and Cody Harp stepped it up but in the end we were unable to find the end zone again giving Jeremy's team a 14-7 win.
This week in Bible study we looked at three stories. The calling of Levi(Luke 5:27-32), Zacchaeus(Luke 19:1-10) and when Jesus talked to the Samaritan woman(John 4:1-42).

Luke 5:30-32 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law who belonged to their sect complained to his disciples, "Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?" Jesus answered them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

Two things here, first the Pharisees needed to realize that "All have sinned"(Romans 3:23,24)so they themselves were in the same boat as everyone else. They(The Pharisees)also needed a Saviour. Secondly, Jesus was willing to help whoever was willing. Jesus was not worried about social status, he wanted to help everyone. This still true today! Jesus will help whoever asks! He has left the choice up to you.

1 Timothy 1:15a - Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.

Next week is the 16th Battalion Olympics! Don't be late!

This is awesome! I was wondering when the Pizza Sandwich first came to be! If Joe and Tyler were both around on that fateful day then Tyler has to be right. It had to be 2002 or 2003. Question is, was Ryley there? And who's idea was it?
