Shop With A Cop (Help Needed)
Last year our church came together to help save Shop With A Cop by raising over $1,600 for a few children that needed our help. This year the city is doing fundraisers. One of the ways they are raising funds is to offer a Christmas tree auction. We have purchased a tree & some ornaments. We need more! We need to raise $300. Any money raised above this amount will go to the charity “Shop With A Cop”. The tree auction begins on Friday and ends on Saturday. Please bring checks to the church between Monday and Thursday of this week. If you have any questions please call Ryan Lucia at 678-446-7603.

Mark Allison Debates Atheist Part 2
Part 2 of this video series is the first question to both Mark and Matt Dillahunty. The question is “is it possible to be good without God”?
Mark Allison Debates Atheist Part 1
Did you miss the debate? No worries we have it for you. Mark Allison represented our church and God in a loving and humble way. This video is of the opening statements by both Mark Allison & Matt Dillahunty.
Did You Miss The Debate “Good Without God”
This debate was amazing. Our very own Mark Allison did an amazing job of showing God’s love and answering questions in an educated and loving manner. I believe walls were broken and lives are in balance after this meeting. There is hope and we want to encourage you to continue to pray for the atheist that attended the debate.
Watch it here….

GOOD WITHOUT GOD? LIVE DEBATE
Matt Dillahunty from The Atheist Experience To debate Mark Allison from Covenant Connections Church
The South is full of people who believe that to be good you must have God. The Gainesville State College Secular Student Alliance disagrees with that statement. The Secular Student Alliance has arranged a debate between Matt Dillahunty, atheist, and Mark Allison, Christian, on the topic of Good Without God. There will be 5 questions presented by the moderator then time for questions from the audience. The debate will be held on Thursday November 17th at 7:00PM. The debate will be held on the Gainesville State College Campus in the Academic IV building, on the 3rd floor in the multi-purpose room.
Matt Dillhaunty is from Austin, TX where he is the host of The Atheist Experience, an atheist call in show, on Austin public access television. He is well known in the national and international atheist network. Mark Allison is the Professor of Ministry at Covenant Connections Non-Denominational Church in Flowery Branch, GA.
The host, Devidyal Givens, is currently enrolled at Gainesville State College in the Chemistry program and plans to continue her education in the field of Neuroscience. She has been an atheist and a good person for many years with no god.
The moderator will be Tom Preston. Mr. Preston has a Ph.D. in Speech and Dramatic Art (Speech Communication.) Mr. Preston is also the faculty advisor for the Gainesville State College Debate Club.
This event is geared towards believers and nonbelievers alike. The goal is a rational discussion on common life concerns and whether goodness can come from the godless. Hopefully parties from each side of the debate will walk away with a better impression of one another and realize that they should at least approach the idea of working together for the betterment of the world.
Trusting God in everything; the good and the bad!

Transformed Journey Into A Spirit Filled Life – Book Signing
Have you ever wondered if there is more to life?
Bruce Parkman was raised in a good, Christian family, yet through a perception of inadequacies, he felt unloved, unworthy, and lonely. After the death of his mother, he began to question everything he’d ever been taught.
At the age of forty, Bruce had tried it all his own way. What he got was several failed marriages, nights of solitude in empty hotel rooms, and a desperate attempt to find fulfillment through his job. And one night, after too many drinks, he found himself behind bars. In what seemed like a dead-end situation, God came to him in a dream, calling him to ministry and turning Bruce’s world upside down.
In Transformed: Journey into a Spirit-Filled Life, author Bruce Parkman takes readers through his process of discovery and renewal as he re-examined what it means to follow Christ. Using laymen’s terms, Parkman also addresses controversial issues such as praying in tongues, eternal salvation, supernatural healings, and end time events.
196 pages – $12.99 (paperback)

Event date: Saturday, November 12th from 3:00-5:00 p.m.
