TOM DAVIS IS COMING TO CHAMPAIGN!!!

For those of you who have read "Fields of the Fatherless" or "Red Letters" you will be thrilled to know that Tom Davis is coming to CU on November 6th at 6:30pm to First Christian Church. This is the first (of hopefully many) key note speaker to speak on behalf of "CHOSEN" an orphan and adoption ministry new to FCC. The evening of course includes Tom, dinner, music and worship. The tickets are $20/per person.

For those of us who attend FCC, we will be doing a study of the book starting September 19th at 10:45am. For those who don't attend....this would make an awesome book club book!!! How often do you get to read a life-changing book AND meet the author and hear him speak? It would definitley make a great girls night out or be infomrative to a couple who has always thought about adoption and/or orphan care!

Here is a little about the book from Tom's website www.fieldsofthefatherless.com:

"Think of this little book you're holding as a map that leads to a field filled with treasure. The treasure is the truth about what brings joy to God's heart - and can bring great joy to yours, too.

Unfortunately, many Christians today aren't experiencing the kind of fulfillment and joy they long for in their walk with God. In Fields of the Fatherless, author Tom Davis reveals why this is so. "Real joy is not always found in obvious places," writes Davis. "Instead, it hides in corners, waiting to be discovered when we sacrifice our desires for God's desires."

With compassion and insight, Davis shows you how to reach out to a special group of people who are most in need -- and who the Bible reveals are most on God's heart. Starting now, you can know the kind of purpose and joy that comes when you work side by side with God in His favorite fields."
