pg. 2 The Spire
In August of 1959 when Woodmont
was only 16 years old, church leadership
made a very wise and visionary decision
to purchase the house and three acres
of land to the South of our property for
a price of $65,000. There is no telling
what that land is worth today were
just glad we own it. This became known
as South Hall and it has been used
ever since for committee meetings,
Bible studies, prayer groups, youth groups and a myriad of other
things. Today, it serves as the HUB of our outreach ministries and it
is cramped. South Hall has served as the home of The Nashville Food
Project for the past five years, AA on Tuesday and Thursday nights
for decades, and Room In the Inn from November through March
since the mid 1980s. We have also used it to house visiting youth
groups, mission teams, Disciples Classes, pre-marital seminars,
pumpkin patches, and other special events. 1) The Nashville Food
Project first came to Woodmont in January of 2009 and was called
Mobile Loaves and Fishes at that time. The ministry grew and grew
until it evolved into an independent non-profit The Nashville Food
Project. We willingly house The Nashville Food Project rent free and
we pay the bills. This is a partnership in which we take great pride
and in which numerous Woodmont members and small groups serve
on a regular basis. Its also a ministry that lives out daily what Jesus
commands in Matthew 25: I was hungry and you gave me food.
The mission of TNFP is to Bring people together to grow, cook, and
share nourishing food with the goal of cultivating community and
alleviating hunger in Nashville. TNFP serves roughly 700 meals per
week to the homeless and working poor of our community at a cost
of 25-30 cents per meal. Last year, we gleaned over 70,000 pounds
of food from the community that would have otherwise gone to
waste. There is a staff of nine plus interns and we welcome roughly
600 unique volunteers to our campus every month. 2) Alcoholics
Anonymous (AA) saves lives. Anybody whose family has been
affected by alcoholism or addiction knows this. Addiction seems
to be on the rise in our culture, especially in affluent areas. We are
proud to host one of the largest AA chapters in Nashville at South
Hall and sometimes we will have over 100 people here on Tuesday
and Thursday nights. This is a vital ministry. 3) Charlie Strobel,
who is speaking at Woodmont this Wednesday, worked with four
congregations to start Room in the Inn (RITI) back in December of
1986. By the end of that winter, 31 congregations had joined the
effort and it went on to become a national ministry. Today there
are over 180 congregations and close to 6000 volunteers in Middle
Tennessee that make RITI happen, giving the homeless of our city
a warm place to sleep and two warm meals during the cold winter
months. Woodmont has always been proud to be a part of this
ministry and South Hall is where it happens. We will begin a new RITI
season in November and we are always needing volunteers to drive
the bus, bring meals, and serve as overnight hosts. Contact Mary
Kiger (maryhkiger@gmail.com) or April Gung (apirl.stevens320@
gmail.com) if you are interested in signing up.
When we completed our strategic planning process earlier this
year, the message we heard loud and clear from the congregation
is that mission and outreach is our top priority and we want to
see our outreach efforts continue to grow and expand. We also
acknowledged that South Hall has become over-crowded there is a
lot happening up there. So, since the first of the year, the Woodmont
Board has been discussing the need to expand South Hall to keep
up with and also enhance these growing ministries. Last week, the
board passed a motion to move forward with a campaign this fall to
raise the money to expand South Hall. There is great passion around
this and it is going to happen. Multiple plans have been considered
and discussed at length but the sketch below shows the plan that the
board favors because it will enhance all three ministries and tie in
nicely with the existing building. We are now finalizing construction
numbers and those will be announced as soon as we have them. The
bottom line is this is a doable campaign and we will raise the money
to make it happen. As a missional church, what we do at South Hall
lies at the heart of who we are as Christians and what we are about as a
congregation. We should take great pride in these ministries, support
them, and do whatever it takes to keep them going and growing. Stay
tuned for more details on the South Hall campaign. I hope you will join
me in making this important project happen!

There are works of art that invite us in
and some that ask us to keep our distance
and just look. I find myself easily lost in
Mozarts Concerto No. 20 in D Minor, K.466,
mvt. II. The simplicity of the opening melody
with its tonic-dominant seesawing pulls me
into the work every time. Its clarity allows me
to freely walk around inside and feel at home.
The Valse de Chopin from Pierrot Lunaire
by Arnold Schenberg is one of the latter for me. I love the work and
this particular movement is less than 90 seconds long. While I am
experiencing it, though, I do not find myself inside it. I am instead,
standing outside looking, as if it were a painting on a museum wall. The
emotional attachment I feel for the Mozart Romance is replaced with an
intellectual understanding of what the text and music represents- an
homage to the great Frdric Chopin.
It is easy for us to fall into these categories. We can welcome others into
our lives and allow them the freedom to feel at home. Unfortunately,
we can also choose to erect a barrier that enables others just to politely
see our outer shell.
Lord, may we be more like kitchen tables and less
like trinkets on a shelf.
Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? (Luke 11:40).

Beverly Honeycutt to Retire
For over 30 years, housekeeper Beverly Honeycutt has arrived Woodmont at 7:00 am each Sunday morning to open the building, make
cofee, etc. for those arriving to worship. Each Wednesday she opens the building at 5:45 am and prepares biscuits and cofee for three mens
Bible classes. We have depended on her for those early morning WCC events and she rarely missed a morning even in inclement weather.
Bev joined the Woodmont staf in June, 1986 and this past summer, celebrated her 31st anniversary with us. After being diagnosed with
some health problems several months ago, she has decided to take early retirement. Beverlys last day will be October 23rd. Join us on
Sunday, October 19th for a celebratory reception in the Gathering Hall as we extend our best wishes and ofer our thanks to Beverly for her
contributions to Woodmont.

Whittington
What would it be like to have a conversation with Jesus? What would
you say to Him; more importantly, what would He say to you? Two good
questions - even if the answers are known only to God. We are privy,
however, to several conversations from the Gospel of John between
Jesus and others such as Nathaniel, Nicodemus, the Woman at the Well,
and Peter. Would He say the same thing to us? Yes, I think so! With help
from my co-teacher, Alan Sowell, Ill be sharing my thoughts on these
conversations from the fourth Gospel as we discuss selected passages
from John. Join us!

Randy Smith and Beth Patillo will be teaching a 6-8 week series of classes on Marcus Borgs book, The Heart of Christianity: Rediscovering a Life of Faith. It will be
a lively, interactive class that will both challenge and afrm your beliefs in Christianity. The class will meet Sunday mornings at 11:00 A.M. in Room 105.
All Woodmont members and visitors are welcome.
A brief synopsis of the frst four weeks:
Acknowledging that the traditional ways of understanding Christianity continue to have value for many people, Borgs book is for those who struggle with,
or even reject, a traditional understanding but still seek to fnd a meaningful way of being Christian. Borg provides new interpretations for terms and ideas
frequently thought to be helpful only to evangelicals and fundamentalists such as born again, and Kingdom of God. Attendees are not required to read the
material in advance but the book is available from the Spire Bookstore and many online booksellers.
The tentative schedule for the frst four weeks:
October 12: Chapter Two, Faith (chapter one will serve as background in this discussion)
October 19: Chapter Three, The Bible
October 26: Chapter Four, God
November 2: Chapter Five, Jesus
NEW CLASSES AND OPPORTUNITIES TO LEARN
Introduction to the Bible A New Three Week Wednesday Evening Series
October 8th, 15th and 22nd 6:30 p.m., Rm. 200, led by Dr. C. Roy Staufer
Intro to the Bible is for people who have never really studied the Bible before or who want a refresher class. It focuses
on: Who wrote and decided what books are in the Bible (and why), and the diferent kinds of writings. It will also ofer
a brief summary of each book of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.
The Pathways class is pleased to host Dr. Walker Surdacki for a 4 week series:
An Introduction to Adolescence: How to disciple young people better in the church.
We will meet in Drowota Hall at 11:00 AM on Sundays Oct 26th, Nov 2nd, 9th and 16th.
Dr. Walter Surdacki is an Associate Professor of Youth and Family Ministry at Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN where he teaches various Youth

over 16 years working at churches in Torrance, Malibu and Campbell California. He currently volunteers with the youth ministry at the Otter Creek
Church where his daughters are in the youth group. He is a regular speaker and teacher at events all over the country. Walter and his wife, Amy, have
two daughters, Madeline and Abby. Walter loves to travel, cook, snowboard, read, write, and ride roller coasters.
The Pathways Class was founded last summer and is designed for parents of kids pre-school~high school. We are an energetic group of 3050
somethingswho are seeking spiritual and practical guidance on our journey of faith. Throughout the year we will watch video lessons and host
speakers who share their insight and perspective on the challenges facing the modern Christian family. Last year some of our topics were marriage,
prayer, and growing our faith. We participated in family service projects and held a class dinner. This is a great place to have good discussions, gain
practical advice, and to build relationships. Come join us! We normally meet at 11AM in the Board Room on the 2nd foor (just past the Fellowship
Hall gathering space).
