vs.

As you probably know, the Washington Redskins won in Tampa Bay this past Saturday, moving them on to play Seattle in next round of the NFC playoffs. It just so happens that the game is at 4:30pm, and will last well into the time normally scheduled for our five15 BIG MEETING.

We are going to move the five15 BIG MEETING to 3:30pm, meet for an hour, and then watch the game together. I see this as a great opportunity for us to consider together what Scripture has to say about viewing professional sports, and make a memory by watching the game together.

Here’s the price of admission: we’d like to ask each family to bring a two-liter bottle of soda and one sporting event snack, such as a plate of buffalo wings, chips & seven layer dip, a bag of Cheetos, a plate of brownies, etc. (Slap a label on your dish if you hope to ever see it again!)

Please consider taking up the five15 Challenge by inviting friends from your school, your sports team, or your neighborhood to come. This would be an easy event to invite friends to who might not normally show up.

Briefly, let me review the details:

• The five15 BIG MEETING starts at 3:30pm.
• We’ll be watching the game (commercial-free) together.
• Please bring: 1) A two-liter soda AND 2) a sporting event snack (wings, chips & dip, a bag of Cheetos, brownies, etc…)
• Bring a friend!

See you Saturday!
