CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

The Living Beyond Yourself Bible study has finally come to formation. True_Noir_Chloe and I have the pleasure of leading any willing young ladies on a deeper search through God's Word concerning the book of Galatians and seeking spiritual fruit.

We will be meeting at 8:30 pm CST on Friday evenings for 11 weeks. We are so excited about what God will do, and we have been praying earnestly for each and every girl who will participate.

If you are planning on joining this study with us, please respond to this announcement thread by telling us which IM client you prefer: AIM or YIM.

It's not too late to join us! PM myself or True_Noir_Chloe for more information

I have both so it really doesn't matter to me... although there is voice talk on YIM that works better. Sometimes talking is so much easier than typing long amounts of text.

Yahoo. Definitely Yahoo. *claws AIM to shreds*

YIM all the way. However, I haven't picked up the workbook yet. Money's still kind of tight right now. Sorry!

I think I'm the only one here that prefers AIM. ^^; In any case, YIM is okay too.

I think Yahoo, if it doesn't make a difference. I'll need to set it up. Sadly, I haven't IMed since the BBS days b/c I work from home, I have 4,000 emails coming in daily at the speed of IM. I've just located the workbook at Lifeway Christian Stores so I'm going to run uptown to pick one up before Friday. I'm looking forward to the study. Do we need to do any of the workbook before then?

from what I know about Beth Moore books, the first get-together is like an introduction... I'm sure our leaders will correct me if I'm wrong ^^;

YIM or AIM....both work. I kind of prefer AIM though. Friday eve? *mourns* Well I can make some of them anyways..lol.

I prefer AIM.

While we do want you to have the book by the 10th, you will not need to do anything before that meeting. We will have the first one as an introduction to the class and to one another. While it's possible to do the study with us WITHOUT a book for a while, we strongly encourage you to get one ASAP or PM one of us if you can't so we can get it to you.

Roger that, Lady Ashley.

YIM is better... i will try and make it every friday at that time

I'm a bit bummed out 'cause I live near a Family Christian Bookstore, and today I went there, and they don't have the workbook. I'll have to try again later.

I have the book...

We have AIM, but I guess we could get YIM. Links, anyone?

We only have MSN let me know what we are going to use and I will get it.

^^;;; I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to withdraw from the study. We're going to be traveling a lot this summer again. I'll be sure to keep up with my Bible reading, though. I hope everyone else has fun with this~

i haven't gotten the book yet, but am planning on getting it next week, hopefully one of the stores will have it. my work schecule is quite wonky, and i won't know what it is from one week to the next, so if i can't make the scheduled meetings, if someone could email me a transcript that would be much appreciated.

for those that i do manage to make, i have both YIM and AIM, i'll need to dig up my YIM, but doing so won't be much of a problem, and since i don't chat much on either of those, i don't have a preference.

AIM for sure... im afraid i'll be missing this friday's meeting cuz im going to be traveling out of state, i'll catch up w/ you all next week tho!

So the meeting is on the 10th, at 6:30pm (PST)?

Personally, I prefer AIM, but if everybody else wants YIM, I can hop over to yahoo and set myself up an account.

(Are we suppose to do a week of the study BEFORE the first session, or is this first session just an intro to the study? *hopes it's the latter or she's really gonna have to get crackin'*)

The first session is the intro session.

I prefer AIM since it's the only one I have right now.
God Bless,
Souba

Do we need to alert the leaders concerning what our SNs are?

(BTW, there is a chance that I won't be able to attend tonight due to a death in one of the families that attends our church. I'll be babysitting for children of the family, but I think I might be back in time. Just thought I'd give you the heads up so you didn't think I was abandoning the study.)

Yes, please do.

I'm sorry to hear about the death in one of your church family. However, no worries because we don't start until NEXT Friday evening, June 10th at 8:30 CST. It's only an introductory session. ^_____^

I would really like to get involved with this, but June 10th is my high school graduation, so I probably won't be online all night.

Could I PM one of you with my AIM name and join on the next session if that is possible?

Devoted Friend, first off hi and welcome to CAA. This is the first time I've seen you here; and, I love your avatar. ^__^

Anyway, if you'd like to join the Bible study you don't necessarily need to take part in every chat, which is only discussion, but you will need the workbook, "Living Beyond Yourself," by Beth Moore.

This is a study that you do on your own at your own leisure and we then meet at the end of each week to discuss what we've learned during our time with God for that particular week's study. The chat is a good time of fellowship and question and answers with Ash and me.

Please pm me or Ash if you need this elaborated and are truly interested and I'll help you out further if you do want to join. Thanks. ^___^
