FUEL THIS SUNDAY:

We're starting a new series this week called Battlefield.  Life just isn't the same without friends around. Think about it-doesn't having friends around make everything a little better?  When you are in relationship with someone, there's bound to be conflict.  In his letter to Ephesians, Paul offers some guidance on how to handle conflict that, if we can put it into practice, has the power to change the way we fight. Through Paul's words, we discover the real win in an argument is when we fight for something more than being right. 

An exciting event for Dads and their Daughters!
