the mouth of the man himself.
4. Why God Wants You to Save the Earth
Tim
Kreps
Forests are being cleared, species are disappearing,
water is being polluted. Environmental problems are not hard to
find. The question is, what role does faith play in addressing
these issues?
Learn what it is like to be a student at Bridgewater College
from someone who knows (AKA a real, live student)! Is BC the
right fit for you? Sprout your wings and find out in this
interactive game-based workshop!
Being a Christian today is no picnic. “New Atheism”,
materialism, and current issues can make it a true wrestling
match. Come take a minute in the ring where we’ll explore the
issues and learn the right “workouts” and “moves” to help in the
struggle to be disciples in this century.
7. Outdoor Adventures Games and Thoughts
Tina Lowe
Adventure your way around the Bridgewater College campus as you and your
friends search for clues!
Work together to find out who did it, where, and how.
If you want to run around outside and play games for
awhile, come on out and put your detective skills to the test!
The Jive, Jitterbug, Shag, and Swing are all forms
of the most prevalent fast dance in American culture.
Come learn to do a fun dance for almost all popular
music.
What makes you …YOU?
Come explore what influences our identities. We’ll focus on the
role of leaving our comfort zones and how they can teach us more
about God, the world, and ourselves.
