Friday was a long day at school and I was glad the week was at a close. Friday evening, of course, I went to my Bible study. I showed up at Jason's house and there were 6 guys and myself. Whoa. That is a lot of boys. Jason cooked and even made me a "mini man burger." I felt a little shy and out of place, but Bible study was fabulous. It was great to hear these men of God share their hearts and become transparent. We focused on the verse...Everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. So, if something is mastering us, taking control of our lives, how do we overcome it? How do we know if it is God's will?

Here were some things we talked about that could master us:
sex
money
drinking
competition
ministry
church
family
expectations
food
teaching
habits
thoughts
attitude
health
tv
appearance
idleness
dreams
career
time
friends
worry
discontentment
