Ultimate Fighting Championship?

UFC…Tap Out…and other “fighting” terms are becoming common words in many people’s vocabulary.  Millions of Americans tune in, each week, to see fighters climb into a ring, or “the cage” (or octagon), and fight.  People pay big money to watch people fight.   When I think about it, it seems cruel and crazy!  Yet, on the other hand, I guess if you’re going fight, you might as well get paid for it…(or is that crazy too)?  Do you ever fight?  Have you ever had someone take a “poke” at you?  Have you ever wanted to fight someone?  (Be honest…)
 
Come and join us, as we begin a new message series at Crossroads Church Saturday, September 26 called:  “UFC” — Ultimate Fighting Championship?  Or, Ultimately Friendly Christians?  While we don’t want to admit it, and usually hate to talk about it openly…let’s face it…sometimes even Christian’s fight!  If you haven’t been trained how to fight, if you’re not in condition, if you use the wrong technique or equipment, and if you fight against people in the wrong “weight class” you’re going to get hurt!  Jesus talked about fighting.  Paul, and the other early church leaders addressed fights, even among members.  Fighting is nothing new!  So, come join us, at Crossroads, as we learn what God says about “Fighting”.  How should we fight?  Who should we fight?  Where should we fight?  What should we be willing to fight about?  When should we fight?  These are all valid questions in today’s world.  Learning to fight fair, and learning to protect yourself could save your life, your marriage, your family, your job, or even your salvation!   Invite a friend (or an “enemy”) and join us as we learn how, and who to fight.
