The Gospel According to Irony

Tonight is our bi-weekly lifegroup. Actually we had lifegroup last week but it was because we were off a week from canceling so this gets us back on track. We're doing this DVD driven series called "Just Walk Across The Room" that our church is also following on Sunday mornings. I'll be honest with you, I'm not a fan of video/DVD Bible studies but tonight, I'm not complaining. That's because I am not prepared. I didn't study. I intended to, I meant to, I wanted to. But Wednesday seemed to arrive faster this week than on normal weeks, I think a day disappeared somewhere in there. So the good news is that Bill Hybels will do most of the teaching tonight. The bad news is, I will still be leading the discussion.
The great news is that my lifegroup happens to be comprised of some of my best friends who will openly mock me but love me nonetheless.
The ironic news is that this week's verse is as follows...

1 Peter 3:15
But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect...

How'd it go? I hope your group stepped in the fill in the gap since you were so un-prepared!
You were probably too busy this week shopping for flip flops.

I liked this series. But maybe it's because I am not as good a teacher as you.

back before the smith regime revolutioned the youth group experience as we know it, we always knew the youth leaders were about 6 weeks away from splitting when they gave up actual teaching and took it to video.
good times.
