From Athletics!!!

  • HALFTIME ACTIVITIES: When you come to a basketball game what do you do at halftime? Head for the concessions stands, chat with your friends, read the game program? Now you have a chance to win cash or an iPad mini. Come to any remaining home basketball game this season and shoot for a prize. If you make a lay-up, you win $5.00. Then you play ‘Let’s Make a Deal’ with the Athletic Department. Are you willing to give up the $5 for a chance at $10, $25, or an iPad mini? Sink a free throw, three-pointer, and half-court shot for your chance at the ultimate prize. Students will be chosen randomly from the stands so make sure that you are in attendance when the players are being picked.

“Loveology”
The Never-Ending Story of Male and Female

Wed., Feb. 19, 9 – 11 p.m. Emitte Center

In the beginning God created man and woman. Ever since, we humans have been asking questions. “Loveology” is an exploration of what the Bible has to say about the never-ending story of male and female. This Corban community-only event, especially for singles, will feature in-depth discussion about singleness and marriage from “Loveology” author John Mark Comer. Comer serves as lead pastor at Bridgetown: A Jesus Church, which is part of a family of churches formally known as Solid Rock in Portland, OR. Bridgetown is unique in that about half of the 6,000-member church is made up of educated, unmarried college students and twenty-somethings. After he speaks, Comer will host a lively, anything goes Q&A session. Come and discover the theology of love, ask questions about sex and romance, and maybe even learn something new about God’s purpose for you.
