Relational Intelligence
What’s your Relational IQ? For Paul, this sort of IQ is measured by a commitment to please God, rather than to please others (1 Thess 2:4). He is authentic rather than ‘packaged.’ In quick succession in 1 Thess 2:1-6 he can claim he is no empty-shell or a fraud. He is not calculating, political or manipulating. He never pushes his own way around, greedy or wanting to be the center of attention. He is the opposite of a con artist!

Teddy Sayonkon Foundation
Scholarship Fund Raising Efforts Now Underway. Will You Help?
TCC member Teddy Sayonkon continues his mission work in Liberia, with an effort to raise funds for ten highly motivated children to attend a Christian school this year.
Less than $500 per child will allow them to buy uniforms and attend school. Donating to support these children is a wonderful way to tangibly share the love of Christ!
TSF’s featured student,
Eddie Garneo, is a high school student at Calvary Chapel high school, and a beneficiary of TSF scholarship. Eddie lives with both
of his parents. His older sister was the provider for the family and passed four years ago leaving the family in hardship. His dad was working as contractor to earn money for their family, but two years ago a tragic automobile accident left him unstable. Eddie’s mom is not educated and has no career to support their family. Eddie said upon completion of high school he wants to attend the Baptist Theological Seminary and serve as pastor.

Weekend Seminar September 29th & 30th*
500 Years Later: The Reformation and its Lasting Impact
This year marks the 500th year since Martin Luther nailed his ninety-five theses to the church door in Wittenberg. While the theological, ecclesial and political consequences of this event- and the events that followed- have been discussed ever since, the Protestant Reformation has also had a profound social impact on the world today. This seminar will provide some historical context for the events that sparked the Reformation and explore some of its diverse outcomes.
$5 suggested donation for lunch on Saturday.
