JOIN US FOR LUNCH!

We would like to invite you to our SCORE (Students Count On Real Examples) Benefit Lunch on Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2019, at 11:30 a.m. at Vulcan Park and Museum, 1701 Valley View Drive, Birmingham, AL 35209. Our special guest speaker is Sherri Burgess.

Sherri Burgess is a Christian writer, speaker, and Bible teacher. Her story is one of hope and stands as an example of the joy we can all have in Christ even in the aftermath of the most tumultuous of storms. Hers came on Jan. 19, 2008, when she found her youngest son, Bronner, drowned in their family's backyard swimming pool. They had just returned home from visiting friends and family and were getting settled back in for the night when he wandered outside alone. He was only two years old . She and her husband, Rick Burgess, of the "Rick and Bubba Show," wanted to know why, "Why does God allow such calamity, such heartbreak, such sadness in our world?" God answered them. It took five years of mourning, Bible study, prayer, and writing, but Sherri was ready to reveal all she learned about suffering in those quiet moments alone with God. Her book, Bronner: A Journey to Understand, was released in January 2016. Its message is this: that life is to be lived for God, not self, and that this world is soil for testing and fire for refinement readying the Christian for a forever with God. We hope you will join us and come hear Sherri as she shares her story.
