Family Camp 2008

We spent last week at Life Action Ministry's Family Camp. Here's the teaser description from Life Action's web site.

More than just fun and games for the kids, these camps bring your family together with the best activities summer can offer.We have a lake (what is camp without one?), but the rest may surprise you. Yes, we have paintball. Yes, there’s a waterslide. Do we have fields and playgrounds? Absolutely.

What you’ll find most helpful—even beyond our facilities—is the spiritual environment. You’ll hear biblical messages regularly. Your children can partake in special clubs, and our family assistants will guide your family through the day’s events, assisting with activities, child care, tours, and whatever else you may need.You’ll love our summer camps. But be careful; they’re addicting.

Life Action's description humbly states, "You'll hear biblical messages regularly." This statement is true, but please understand that Life Action has put together a line up of speakers who are outstanding communicators of God's word.

This year our speaker was Mark Vroegop, senior pastor at College Park Church in Indianapolis. Life Action provided each camp family with a CD of Mark's messages. I asked Mark if I could post them on my blog. He said I could. So, I'm going to post all seven of his messages from the week.

Mark spoke on being:

• God's kind of person
• God's kind of partner
• God's kind of parent
• God's kind of parishioner
• God's kind of provider

The sound quality of the recordings is excellent. Mark is easy on the ears, challenging to the heart. I recommend this series to anyone.

If you are considering attending Family Camp, this will give you an idea of what chapel messages are like. They're great!

You can listen right on this blog page, or right click the link below and choose "Save Target As..." to save the file to your computer. They are MP3 files, so I guess they could be saved to an iPod.
