LIFE LESSONS FROM CHESS

Sun, Aug 1, 2010

Jesus amazed his listeners in explaining deep spiritual truths by using common things and situations around him to illustrate a point: sheep, goats, coins, candles, salt, cities, sand, grain, wine, water, bread, family relationships, farming, fishing, storms, birth, death and a multitude of other metaphors.

Life Lessons from Chess is an attempt to follow his model. It is a series of short devotionals to get your day started in God’s Word. Over the course of the next few weeks we will be presenting this series called written by Major W. Paul Fleeman, DMin. who is the Principal of The College For Officers Training USC Central Territory.

FYI – Major Eric Bond (our Training Prinicipal ) as well as a number of cadets at our own CFOT enjoy the game of chess. We trust you will enjoy this series and we look forward to your responses.

CFOT HIGHLIGHTS

February 6, 2012

Praying Scripture – Leviticus 20:8

Keep my decrees and follow them.
I am the LORD, who makes you holy.

Living Scripture - Psalm 24:3

Who may ascend the mountain of the LORD?
Who may stand in his holy place?
The one who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who does not trust in an idol
or swear by a false god.
CFOT was pleased to welcome special guests Colonels Floyd and Tracey Tidd to our In Sunday on January 22, 2012.
The focus of their message was “Hope” and cadets and officers shared stories of life situations that may have seemed hopeless but which eventually brought them to know hope.

This In Sunday was also blessed by the attendance of our Field Based Training cadets – Peck-Ee Wong and Leonard Heng, and Kim and Darryl Burry (and their family).
