Wednesday Night February 25, 2009

We had a crowd tonight with twenty-five kids. That was with a couple regulars skipping out on us too! It is much more fun when we have a crowd, and that is what we had. We finished up on 2 Timothy chapter three. I really focused on what Paul had to say in verse 12. Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. Here we can clearly see that if we do what we are supposed to, we WILL suffer persecution. Many Christians view persecution and hardships as a negative thing to be avoided. The truth is we should welcome them as they show we are on course. If you never encounter any hardships, then you are doing what you should. Paul then goes on to tell Timothy to continue in the Word.

I am trying to do the same for our young people as what Paul was doing for Timothy. Paul was teaching Timothy how to be a good soldier for Christ and encourage him where he needed it. If we can lay a foundation based on God and His Word, then our youth will have what they need to bring honor and glory to the King.

We finished up Bible drills for the month of February. Richard won the older group and Sarah won the younger group. It was close, but they pulled it off. Congratulations. We will try to mix it up a little this next month with a little different format. We are finalizing plans for our summer camp, as well as working up a couple excursions in the month of March. Until next time, may the Grace of our Lord Jesus be with you-brother jason

1 Corinthians 15:14 Let all your things be done with charity.
