Here are the the audio files from the large group teaching times. They include some of the direction during prayer time and Andy’s messages… sorry, that’s still illegal.

They range from 70-100 MB each as they are the highest quality recording we can offer.

Many blessings. Use them as your own refresher or feel free to share. You can play them from this or download them for your own use:

Don’t forget that this year we will be doing a work project, just like last year. Honestly, how much work was it? It was more fun than anything else.

Still, it’s best to come prepared.

Plan on bringing clothes and shoes that you can work in and maybe get a little dirty. Also a set of work gloves would be great.

On top of that, just bring a great attitude and lots of expectations for good stuff as this year we are “climbing the family tree.”

So here’s the details…
Eagle Retreat 2012 is scheduled for March 23-25 at Webster Conference Center.

This is the blog entry I promised.

We can pretty easily figure out the tv, movies and music to run from, but what do we run to?

Please add comments about TV shows, Movies and music that are safe for the soul!

There will be some difference of opinion I am sure, but this will mat least be a starting place to find some good stuff to pour into our lives.

Please… Comment away!

This year’s theme is called Vantage, and it’s all about the perspective on the life of somebody just like you: growing up in a minister’s household.

• What expectations do  our parents have on us?
• What expectations does the church have  on us?
• What expectations do we have on ourselves?
• What expectations does God have on us?

These are important questions to answer so we can live our life from the right… Vantage.

Currently, we make Eagle Retreat available to these ministry families for 10% of actual cost. But, with budget cuts, global recession and family needs, you can help make Eagle Retreat a possibility for students all over the Kansas Nebraska Convention of Southern Baptists.

For $200 you can make sure that a student has a place to stay, food to eat and enjoys the entire weekend’s programming at Eagle Retreat.

For the last 8 years, lives have been changed and homes have been helped, and you can be a part.

If you can sponsor a student, maybe two, or whatever you can do, please make your donation to the Kansas Nebraska Convention of Southern Baptists care of Eagle Retreat:

Thanks so much for your thoughts, concerns and prayers. God is working in the lives of students at Eagle Retreat.

Here’s the recap video. You can watch it below, or download (just right click to download and save) it for keeps!

This year we’ll be focusing on the concept of working together, collaboration, teamwork, alliance, synergy, the git r’ doneness of the group/family/church that God has given us.

Everything in the media teaches us that we should be able to do it on our own, and if we are uber cool we need no one else… they are wrong.

Everyone needs an ally.

We were built for relationship. You need someone and someone needs you.

Don’t miss this year’s Eagle Retreat March 26-28, 2010.

Allies…

Seeking more of Him and less of me,

Andy Addis
