FCA Discussion Questions (Meeting March 26)
1. Last Time: Responsibility - makin the right choice
2. What was the best TEAM you were ever on? Worst TEAM?
- The best team I have ever been on was my football team this year by going 12-1 and making it to the WPIAL Championship. The worst team I have ever been on is my twerp football team. We only won one game a year.
3. What characteristics contribute to a good TEAM? A bad TEAM?
- A good team has the characteristics of unselfishness, hard work, friendship, loving, and caring of each other. A bad team has characteristics of selfishness, uncaring, and lazy.
4. What does it mean to have TEAM spirit?
- Team spirit is the overall ability for a team to get excited for practice and games. It is also the friendship of the players. Lastly, for example, when some one scores a touchdown or a basketball, the team's reaction shows their team spirit.
5. Compare these 2 definitions:
a) A willingness to lose oneself in the group for the good of the group
- This talks of being unselfish. This says that the team performance is more important than one's individual performance. Instead of taking shot in basketball, if you can pass it off to a teammate for a better shot that is what you should do.
b) An eagerness to lose oneself in the group for the good of the group
- This is similar to the other definition. The difference is the first one said to be willing to lose onself for the benefit of the team. This one talks of being eager, which means that you care more about the team and you will do anything to help the team, even if that means affecting your own individual performance.
6. Can you think of any sport examples of this kind of unselfishness and love?
- Yes, Sidney Crosby. I have never seen more of an unselfish player. He will pass it to a teammate rather than shoot it every time. He sometimes actually makes me angry because he is TOO unselfish.

8. Application: Leassons in Teamwork from Wild Geese

Christian Events This Summer - Beulah Beach
Every summer for the past four years, I have been going to Beulah Beach. Beulah Beach is a Christian Camp that holds different types of camps every year. I always went to the High School Camp, but there are others for kids of all ages. There is also sports camp and water camp. Here are some pictures of myself, friends, and my brother's friends from previous years of going to the camp.

Biblical Principles for Godly Verbal Communication
USE WORDS THAT EDIFY
The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life, but a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit (Proverbs 15:4).
Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones (Proverbs 16:24).
An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up (Proverbs 12:25).
Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification (Romans 14:19).
...authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than pulling you down (2 Corinthians 10:8).
We have been speaking in the sight of God as those in Christ; and everything we do, dear friends, is for your strengthening (2 Corinthians 12:19).
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up (1 Thessalonians 5:11).
