Chi Alpha @ Stanford

Quick reminder–the meet­ing for this Wednes­day has been changed.

Instead of an on-campus wor­ship cel­e­bra­tion we’re hav­ing a party at our place. Email or call if you need direc­tions or a ride.

After some reflec­tion, I’ve decided not to post my mes­sage about the Israeli leader Deb­o­rah online. Given the polit­i­cally cor­rect uni­ver­sity envi­ron­ment in which we find our­selves, one of my run­ning illus­tra­tions is too inflammatory–I wan­dered into areas bet­ter left unrecorded and I’d just as soon not have them quoted out of context.

If you were there, you know what I mean. If you weren’t you don’t. And thus it shall remain.

Also, no meet­ing the day before Thanks­giv­ing!.

If you’re in the area feel free to drop by our place. We’re plan­ning to do some­thing but we haven’t decided what yet.

Want to do some­thing that will make the world a bet­ter place?

If you’re like most col­lege stu­dents you don’t have much money to give, but you do have a tremen­dously valu­able resource–idle CPU cycles.

In-between typ­ing the let­ters that will com­prise the words that will com­pose the para­graphs that will be your hon­ors the­sis you can be solv­ing press­ing sci­en­tific prob­lems that could lead to break­throughs in can­cer, AIDS, SARS, malaria, and many other tragic conditions.

All you need to do is visit http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/, reg­is­ter as a user, and down­load their small, unob­tru­sive software.

Once you’ve done that feel free to join our Chi Alpha grid team. That way we all work together and at the same time bear wit­ness to Christ’s love.

But whether you join the team or not, down­load the soft­ware. What do you have to lose except the minute it will take you to install it?

Using the above tool is the eas­i­est way to lis­ten, but if you pre­fer to down­load it you can click the link below:

Heads I Win; Tails You Lose (Jacob)
Sec­ond mes­sage in the series Run­ning With The Giants
Length: 26:22
Size: 9 MB
For­mat MP3
Speaker: Glen Davis — 11/10/2004

I’m not very happy with the way this mes­sage came out, so it will prob­a­bly be the first to go when we need to save space on the server. At the last minute I decided to change the struc­ture (I was going to alter­nate between Jacob’s plan and God’s per­spec­tive through­out, instead I chose to chunk them together), and it was a mis­take. It makes the mes­sage sound repetitous.

Any­way, I men­tion that in case you really want a copy. Get it while it’s hot!

Also, new pho­tos are in the gallery!

Tues­day Novem­ber 9 at 7:30pm pre­pare for a Halo 2 steel-cage death­match at the Davis House! Email or call Glen if you intend to come. We’ll be using a data pro­jec­tor so the image will be huge, we’ll be order­ing pizza, and award­ing prizes.

Launch­ing our new series, we have a mes­sage on Esther:
