Monday Funday: My camp survival kit

I'm speaking at Timber-Lee Camp this week. This is my camp survival kit: My Cuisinart coffee maker, Eysals Coffee, and yes… we bring our own water for coffee when we're at camp. Gotta control all the variables if you want to make coffee at the level I have grown to love. Can you say "coffee snob"?
I would deeply appreciate your prayers for us this week as I speak to about 400-500 junior high students. Some of these students don't have a relationship with Jesus but need to! Many of these students have a relationship with Jesus… but they need to re-engage it. So please pray for us all.
I will be speaking every morning and evening. I ask you to pray what Paul asked the Colossians to pray for him: "And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ.... Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should." —Colossians 4:2-3

THANK YOU for saying a quick prayer for us… RIGHT NOW!

So many people trying to find friendship and community...

If video above doesn't appear, go here . So many people trying to find friendship and community. Here's a thought. Instead of trying to "find" community, what if instead you sought to "build" community right where you live , work , play , and church ? But how does one "build" community? As a general rule, I try to take all of my questions to Jesus and the Bible.  So, how did Jesus "build" community?   This is where I invite you to do your own study on how Jesus used meals to connect with people. At a minimum, you could quickly search " Jesus eating. " What can we say with certainty about Jesus and eating in the Bible? It seems that Jesus enjoyed eating meals with all sorts of people—and the meal wasn't about the food—it was how Jesus connected with people. Can you think of a better way to connect with people? Perhaps this is why Paul lists "hospitality" as a requirement for all leaders in the church (1 Timothy 3:
