Phlashlight fans, go here to find the Jan. 27th phlashlight presentation: MERCY ME.
We had an appreciative audience of about 30 people, fine worship by Michael Edwards and the Tapes, and two great solo songs by each, including Mike's cover of Denison Whitmer's LITTLE FLOWERS.

The New Phlashlight
About phlash-light:
"If anyone chooses to do God's will, he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own." By God's grace, we see through a glass darkly what we are called to be and to do. We are on the road that leads there.
phlashlight is meant to shed light in the twilight where faith-seeking-understanding can occur. It is a gathering place and the blogosphere location for those people committed to coming to our Sunday night adventures, sharing, seeking, and doing the will of the father.I am an amalgam of spiritual, physical, and social inclinations toward what is right, true, real. By God's grace, I see through a glass darkly what it is i am called to be and to do.
Who is Phlashlight?
I have not arrived and I have not embraced all that I can and should be, but I am on the road that leads there.
But phlashlight is not about me. Its mission is to provide light in the twilight where faith-seeking-understanding can occur. It is a beam of light, a path to follow, a way out and a way in. It is a meeting place and a blogosphere location for those people committed to coming to our Sunday night adventures, those who are sharing, seeking, and doing the will of the father.
What's this blog?
This is the blog for our new BGCC Saturday night gatherings. phlash-light will be an invitation to incarnation, of making your spiritual life more than a theory, a life real in Christ, real in this world.

Saturday Night!
Worship: MICHAEL EDWARDS & THE TAPES
Word: Bruce Edwards on "Mercy Me: What Christians Need to Know About Islam"
Witness: A Film by Elvis Presly
