Our Winter Retreat is coming! Sunday, January 25 is the last chance to get the early bird price of $89. Click here for more info and to register online ASAP – this is a weekend they won’t want to miss.
This past week was full of fun and excitement. We enjoyed our RE*FRESH conference and Gym & Game Day. I love the times I get to hang with the youth for extended times like this.
IN THE WORD THIS WEEK:
Unlock the Truth – Understanding the Bible: This quarter we’re examining healthy Bible study habits. We’re looking into the validity of Scripture, and learning the benefits and blessings of making it a part of our daily lives. This past Sunday we studied the Inerrancy of the Bible.
Wednesday Youth Group: We’re continuing our study of the Holy Spirit. In the series, Amplitude, we’re seeing how the best life is the Spirit-filled life. Tonight we studied one of the nine Fruit of the Spirit – Kindness. We saw great examples of kindness from David and Jonathan.
For Discussion:
- Describe a time when someone was kind to you. How did that make you feel?
- What surprised you most about David and Jonathan’s kindness?
- How can you show kindness to someone this week?
