Fearful Silence

ABF Family,
 
I hope eveyone has enjoyed a great Memorial Day weekend.  The weather held out and it was beautiful.  I really appreciate the discussion in class.  We need to be aware that we live in a post-christian society and we need to subrscribe to God's plan not man's plan.  Have faith, sacrifice and serve for the sake of the Gospel. 
 
So we are finishing up our study in Mark.  What an icredible study about Authentic Discipleship.  I hope everyone learned a lot and are changed because of the time we spent in Mark.  Please take the time to study the Word and have a blessed week. 
 
IN HIS Debt,
 
Brian
