2013 Miracle Yearbook

Our problem is not with our lack of abil- ity, but rather our lack of love for who God is." —Rob Turner Pastor at Apex Community Church o 7#.• FALL BIBLE CONFERENCE At the beginning of every year, even before classes begin, students gather together in the chapel for the Fall Bible Conference.This year,students had the privi- lege of hearing Pastor Rob Turner, a leader of Apex Community Church in both Xenia and Kettering. Stu- dents laughed along with Rob Turner as he told funny stories about his life. His energy and passion for God were evident,and freshmen and seniors alike were able to relate to his messages. Turner reminded students that they should never become numb to the expansion of God's fame because God is worthy to be praised in any circumstance. Patrick Anderson and the other musicians led the students in worship for this year's conference. Thousands of students lifted their voices and filled the chapel with sounds of praise. New stu- dents were awed by the chance to worship with so many other believers,and returning students were glad to be back with fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. For many,the opportunity to worship in song and in prayer encouraged a healing of heart and a renewal of mind. ,fAr ....0- 1. Rob Turner challenges students to act on what they hear. 2.
