Monday’s Meal and The Real Jesus

Tonight was my first Monday’s Meal–a monthly event put on by Impact Ministries (Team Leader: Ilene Polley). Here’s what happens:

  • I paid my $6 and went upstairs into Mercy
  • There were several round tables set up, all with lit candles and table cloths. The food was buffet style: yummy homemade chili, Sahlens hot dogs, ambrosia, cookies… BEAUTIFUL food, served with grace.
  • I had a great conversation over dinner with some great women.
  • Then the program….Lee Strobel talking about The Real Jesus. The idea is de-bunking some of the myths that are out there in our culture. He is a great speaker and the program was informational and helpful to me.

What a lovely evening–if you haven’t gone to a Monday’s Meal, yet, I recommend it! The next one is the first Monday in June (June 2, to be exact).

As a P.S., if you ever wonder if Jesus is the real deal–a true, historical figure who Lived, died on the cross and rose again–and wonder if you can say that to people in your life with surety, Lee Strobel’s book “The Case for the Real Jesus” would be a great read. He also has a great website: LeeStrobel.com which has thousands of free videos which are searchable. Punch in “Muslim” or “The Gospel of Thomas” or whatever you’re looking for help with and video responses will pop right up.

In the “Whoa-that’s wild” category: my morning devotional reading was by Lee Strobel today. :-)
