The Melting Pot is a social gathering for college students from all walks of life which meets on Fridays at 7 PM at the McNeilly home (1623 S Buffstone Ct). We're not that far from campus, but you probably won't want to walk it. If you want help getting there, here are some options:

Option 1—Get a Ride

Want a ride from a current student? We'd be happy to pick you up. Just email us.

Option 2—Take the Bus

Bloomington Transit's 7-Bus picks up on campus and drops off right by our house! Hop on the 7 on 3rd St., then get off at the Regency Court Apartments stop on S Henderson. Our house is in the neighborhood just across the street from Regency Court.
Here's our address and a map:
If you get lost on the way, give Alex McNeilly a call or text at 317-374-8499.

Welcome to IU!

Here at Clearnote Campus Fellowship, we want to equip you for the challenges of college life, but we want to do more than that. It may sound strange, especially if you just started college, but our goal is actually to prepare you for life after college.

We've got exciting plans for 2017, and we hope you'll join us!
Picture
Starting tomorrow (January 10) we'll be continuing in our preaching series through the book of 1 John. Join us every Tuesday as we worship together and hear from God's Word concerning what it looks like to truly follow after Christ.
Picture
For the first half of the semester, we'll be studying the Fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22–23 in our men's and women's discipleship groups. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. What do these things mean, and what does it look like for us to bear these fruits?

Join us for a panel discussion on Sunday, February 12 with Christian professors in the sciences, including 2 current IU professors and an IU alumnus. Bring your questions. You won't want to miss this!

Gearing Up

The past two weeks, we've been spending time after our summer Bible study praying for the upcoming semester. Two Tuesdays ago, we read 2 Corinthians 5:17–20:
If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
​
Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
We prayed that God would give us hearts to be His ambassadors, and that He would prepare specific new people who are "weary and heavy-laden" and seeking rest for their souls (Matthew 11:28).

​Last night we read 1 Peter 2:9–10:
You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; for you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
We thanked God for His excellent mercy in calling us out of darkness into His marvelous light. We then asked for God to stir our hearts to serve in particular ways in ministry with CNCF. Students signed up to pray, to plan Welcome Week activities, to plans fellowship events during the year, to plan our Fall Retreat, to greet students at Tuesday-night gatherings on campus, and much more!

All of these ways of participating in ministry are practical ways that we live out our calling as "priests" to IU and Bloomington, because we do these things so that people might be reconciled to God.

We're excited to welcome new students!

Summer Bible Study 2016: The Life of Elijah

5/11/2016

CNCF's Summer Bible Study starts on Tuesday, May 24! We'll be meeting at the IMU (more details on room to come) on Tuesdays at 7 PM throughout the summer to study The life of Elijah.

In the New Testament, the prophet Elijah is kind of a big deal. He's mentioned in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Romans, and James. John the Baptist is said to be the Elijah prophesied about way back in the book of Malachi, and Elijah himself shows up (along with Moses) on the Mount of Transfiguration to speak with Jesus before His death and resurrection.

So why's Elijah so important? What's so special about him? Well, for starters, he called down fire from heaven, raised a boy from the dead, and ascended into heaven on chariots of fire. And most of all, he trusted God and was filled with the Holy Spirit.


Join us Tuesdays this summer for a study on The Life of Elijah. Starting May 24, we'll be meeting every Tuesday at 7 PM throughout the summer at IU's Indiana Memorial Union (IMU). Stay tuned for more specific details.

See you there!

“Teach Us to Pray . . .”

1/1/2016

Prayer to the One True God is one of the clearest things that sets apart the people of God from the rest of the world. And yet if you ask any self-professing Christian, most will indicate that prayer is one of the greatest areas of weakness in their exercise of faith. We all have many rebellious excuses for not getting around to this duty: busy schedules, cold hearts, other responsibilities.…But without prayer we suffer. And we must ask ourselves, If we lack a desire to seek blessings from our Father in heaven through prayer, are we really His sons?

Tomorrow (Tuesday) we begin our CNCF fall Bible study series entitled Who Is Jesus? On Tuesday at 7 PM we'll be in Foster-Harper in the Formal Lounge. On Thursday at 7 PM we'll be in the Wright Formal Lounge. There will be some time of interactive preaching and teaching, and then we'll break into groups for further discussion, prayer, and to get to know each other better.

In Jesus' day, there were a lot of opinions about who Jesus was. Some thought He was John the Baptist reincarnated, or Elijah, or some other dead prophet. But then He asked His own disciples, "Who do you say that I am?"

If Jesus asked you that same question…
