The winner of the i-Pod is A.J.! Congratulations A.J.! There were six guys that had there name in the draw. Blake, Ball, d-Pod, Chris(The King), John and A.J. all saw 50,000 on the blog. Once again thanks to everyone who supports the blog!
This week we had the ping pong tables out again getting the guys ready for the 16th Annual Btln Ping Pong Tourney. The Tourney is only two weeks away.
The Btln Trifecta has become popular at Battalion lately. Unfortunately for me my teams haven't fared very well. We always start the Trifecta with Handball and again this week one team fell behind early only to make a late game comeback. My team was down 7-3 but fought hard to make it 8-8 only to lose 10-8 in the end. Next was Murderball and again my team looked strong but could not live up to it's potential losing three straight games! The last leg of the Trifecta is Extreme Bulldog and it looked like we had a chance to win at least one game but my team was shutout of the Trifecta again!(I have never won Extreme Bulldog!)
This week in Bible study we looked at a story where Jesus healed a demon-possessed man. (Mark 5:1-20, Luke 8:26-37, Matthew 8:28-34) It is interesting to see what this man was like before he met Jesus. This man lived in the tombs, did not wear clothes or live in a house. He was always shouting at the top of his voice, he was cutting himself with rocks and could not be controlled. What a change in this man's life after he meets Jesus!
Luke 8:35b - When they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus' feet, dressed and in his right mind.
This man was now sitting at Jesus' feet! He was resting in God's peace and was finally relaxed and content! God wants to do the same for us! Without God we can never have true contentment. Jesus wants to free us from our sinful nature.
Gerald started in the middle for Bulldog and did an amazing job for his first time as the Bulldog. It seemed like Gerald didn't ever waste a round. There was always someone going down each round. In the end it was Dalton taking his third Helmet of the year, tightening up the race for Winston! Congratulations Dalton! That fifth Helmet has been elusive for Chris(The King), he is overdue for another win!
THE CAPTAIN
