I’ve always wanted to be part of a Bible Study group.
Mostly because I know NOTHING about the Bible, and would like to absorb it (directly or indirectly) through chatting with other Christian friends; and partly because it’s just fun to get together with people you have something in common with.
This week at our church (Bellevue Community Church), they started something new in an attempt to facilitate getting to know fellow church members, and to simply bring people together to share our views on life, love, church, religion, and living life to the fullest.
Over the course of 40 days, 400 groups of 8-10 individuals are getting together in neighborhoods all across Nashville. We’re all reading David Foster’s book, “Accept No Mediocre Life“, jotting down our daily thoughts and goals, and then getting together each week to watch a DVD that Pastor Dave made to go along with the book.
It’s fun! It’s motivating! And it’s an eye-opening experience…
For me, it’s simply a way to get centered again. It reminds me to step back and re-focus on the things that are really important in my life.
Our friends Mark and Erin signed up to be the “leaders” for our team of 7 (plus 1 virtual member — our friend Mike in Mississippi).
Each week, we’re meeting at a different location to chat about our week together. This week was Mark and Erin’s house. Next week: Dave and Alex’s house.
Here’s more about our favorite church: Bellevue Community Church.
We moved from Florida to Tennessee in 2001. All signs point to the fact that we will probably retire here — by choice. We L O V E Nashville! Our favorite places to live are just south of the City — we’ve had houses in Brentwood, Franklin, and Spring Hill. And we have properties in Leipers Fork, Cookeville, and Lewisburg. This site is where I share my best tips for moving your family to Nashville and/or visiting Nashville for the first time — with the ultimate goal of helping you find fun things to do in Williamson County and Davidson County. When I’m not out & about enjoying the Nashville area, you’ll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
