• The set looked awesome Wednesday night. Robin and Katie did an awesome job painting it.
  • It was the first week of the "Turn It Up" series. I am excited about what this series is going to hold.
  • The band opened with The Fray song "Never Say Never" and rocked it out.
  • Our attendance was down some but the service itself was awesome.
  • Lots of students made commitments to "Turn It Up" in their relationship with Jesus.
  • The altar was not come down to the front and get prayed for, it was go and apply what we have learned.
  • Already gotten a couple of "Turn It Up" stories from students.
  • I know that I say it all the time but I am truly the luckiest Youth Pastor in the world and Thrive are some of the most awesome students anywhere.
Here are some things we talked about:
We as Christ Followers are called to live loud and not be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Romans 1:16.

It is time that we stop treating our relationship with Jesus like a relationship with an ugly boy/girl friend and bring it out in public.

We have to live loud because the world is listening. They are listening with their:
Eyes - They want to see it. Is the volume of your actions louder than the volume of your words?
Hearts - They want to feel it. Is the volume of your reputation louder than the volume of your relationship with Jesus?
Soul - With eternity in mind. Is the volume of your decisions louder than the volume of your dreams?
