Last night was another great youth service. The students of Uth Force are awesome and they really pressed through last night. I believe we are being prepared for an awesome month in December. We are all getting excited about the Blizzard of 2008, which will be our first outreach night.
This weekend is going to rock. I am excited about hanging with the Uth Force students who are going with us to Youth Convention. It is going to be a blast! We have a great group of students and leaders going with us to Macon for two blow out services.
Here are some things we talked about tonight:
This was the last week of the Mixed Signals series as we talked about narrowing the gap between what we say we believe and how we live. We looked at Peter's life in John 21, when he was frustrated and went back to fishing. We fall into the traps of mixed signals . . .
When we go back to past pursuits and re-establish old reputations-Peter found frustration in his old profession and lifestyle when he went back to fishing.
When we recognize Christ's miracles, but miss Christ the man-the disciples spent 3 1/2 years with Jesus but could not recognize him from 100 yards away. We should love Jesus for who he is not what he can do.
When we separate love for God and love for people-you show your love for God by the way we love people. The reason God does something in you is so he can do something through you for others.
Upcoming Events:
Youth Convention is November 21-22 at Christ Chapel in Macon, GA. Cost is $60 and that covers registration, gas, hotel, and two meals. You need money for Saturday lunch, snacks, and shopping. We will leave from the church at 4:30 p.m. on Friday and return around 5:00 p.m. on Saturday.
There will be a cookout and movie night at our house December 7th. The fun starts at 5:30 p.m. Free burgers and dogs. Invite a friend and see you there.
New series in December is Unbelievable, you will never look at Christmas the same. The theme for Youth Service on December 3rd is Redneck Ghetto Christmas. Bring your best Redneck Ghetto Christmas Decoration.
