SUPER BOWL FELLOWSHIP & PRAYER PARTIES

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 7   Super Bowl Fellowship & Prayer 
Parties!     Everyone is encouraged to participate in a Sunday night fellowship
party on February 7th. As a form of fellowship, each Sunday School Small Group is being encouraged to
host a party in one or more locations in someone’s home.
We will be watching the game, hanging out, and also participating in a time of specific prayer for our
church during half-time. These parties will be in lieu of our normal Sunday night service.
This will be a great time to gather for fun as well as directed prayer for our church to be the body He is
calling us to be. Have fun, invite friends to your small group gathering, and use the time to ask God to
have His way with our church.

 LIBRARY CORNER - February 2010
Our February Library theme is: “Experience the Love of Jesus at the Library” –
Check out the library bulletin board and library window display for book and DVD selections that will help you
discover the love of Jesus. See you in the library!

Marriage and Relationship Materials – Did you know that the Cornerstone Library has books and DVDs
that will help you enrich your marriage and relationships? Here is a sampling:
Fireproof DVD and book by Eric Wilson
The Love Dare 40 day devotional that was featured in Fireproof
Happily Remarried by David and Lisa Frisbee
Love and Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs
Night Light Devotional for Couples by Dr. James and Shirley Dobson
His Needs, Her Needs by William F. Harley Jr.
Loving Your Marriage Enough to Protect It by Jerry B. Jenkins
Jeff Allen: My Heart, My Comedy DVD

Rick’s Picks
Each month, the Library Corner column will feature a recommended reading list from Pastor Rick. Here are
“Rick’s Picks” for February:

Covenant Marriage by Gary Chapman – Whether you are in a healthy, loving, and affirming
relationship or you are in a marriage that is holding on by a thread, the keys to survival and
enrichment are the same. Dr. Chapman shows how your relationship with God enhances your
marriage relationship, communication is the primary vehicle by which two persons become one in
the marriage relationship, and the idea of biblical oneness involves not only sex, but also intellectual,
spiritual, emotional, and social oneness.

More Than Enough by Dave Ramsey – Drawing from his years of work with thousands of
families, Dave Ramsey presents the ten keys that guarantee family and financial peace. Using these
essential steps anyone can create prosperity, live debt-free, and achieve marital bliss around the
issue of finances. Filled with stories of couples, single men and women, children, and single parents,
More Than Enough will show you how to create a financial plan that fits your income and creates
wealth.

Cure for the Common Life by Max Lucado - You work all day, arrive home exhausted, watch
TV to unwind, and then go to bed---only to awake the next morning and do it again. Is there a
remedy for routine? Lucado says yes---and helps you embrace your uniqueness and use your
singular talents to experience the "uncommon" life God intends for you.

Just As I Am: The Autobiography of Billy Graham by Billy Graham - In this

memoir, Graham looks back on his lifetime of personal relationships, ministry, leadership, and
experiences. With his down-to-earth warmth and candor, Graham relates the events that helped
shape his spiritual life---and shares insights from encounters with Harry Truman, Winston Churchill,
Queen Elizabeth II, and many others.

As Our Years Increase: Loving, Caring, Preparing by Tim Stafford - Stafford explores the
seven stages of aging, giving practical solutions and inspirational insights to the day-to-day
problems encountered by those over 65 and their caretakers. Aging is presented not as a problem
to be solved, but as a gift from God, a time of life and growth and joy.
