I am rather excited for this Sunday, as you should be, because we are starting up a new series for the end of this semester.
Mike's going to guide us through some theology:
You know what you believe in, but do you really know the specifics? The philosophy out there?
Also, Isaac is going to be playing hard. Bring yourself, bring your friends,
bring your brownies.
P.S. Don't forget your supplies for the Exodus drive!
