Despite the 80+ degree weather and some lovely humidity, our off-church campus excursion to Duff park was quite productive.

After spending a few minutes in prayer, we continued our study and discussion of John Eldredge’s book Walking With God by reading the section titled “Making Room for Joy” (which begins on page 37). We read the section aloud and then talked about what it looks like to live in pursuit of the joy of the Lord. We also spent some time on the aspects of life that get in the way of being able to focus on God and seeking His joy.

After our discussion, we made our way to the nearby Marble Slab, got ice cream, and hung around out front like a strange Murrysville gang of middle class 20-somethings. It was delightful.

Next week, we’ll be back at MCC for our regular meeting date/time/location.

Stay tuned for news of an upcoming end-of-summer picnic and an early autumn white water rafting trip!
