This past Wednesday evening, we took a look at what it means to be God’s representatives. Specifically, what does it mean to be God’s Representatives in an ungodly world.

We entered into week two of our Trader projects this past Sunday night. For those of you who aren’t in the loop on what I’m actually talking about; I suggest you check my previous post based on Surrender Self before reading any further.
Discussing the topic of Obedience with our middle school students. To kick the night off, we pulled their minds back to elementary school with a little Red Light, Green Light and Simon Says. These kids’ games are founded on obeying the commands as closely as possible, in order to succeed in the game.
Last night, we completed our series titled “Surrender” by Francis Chan. I highly suggest the series to any youth group. It was a fantastic model for addressing the current struggles of teens in today’s culture. Furthermore, I believe it has empowered our students to reach new heights with how their faith is played out in day-to-day life.
Many of you have followed my ministry work for the past couple of years. This blog has served as a great resource for our friends and family, to experience my life and service to Alaskan youth. As you all know, there have not been many dull moments while serving in the Last Frontier.
We’ve been working through Francis Chan’s “Surrender” series. The last section of our series is based on the Surrender of SELF. How can we rid ourselves of our Altar Egos?
A Small Group Study – Last Wednesday night we talked about “Dark Horses” in our Middle School Discipleship program.
A few weeks ago, we held our quarterly youth-led service. It’s a great time for our students who have committed to our ministry team program, to use those practical services to the body within the context of Sunday morning worship.
In the book of James, we read about a small part of our body that has great power! This small part of our body has the strength to bring about achievement or destruction. What part do you think it is?
As promised, here’s Francis Chan’s second session of Surrender SIN. Keep your eye out in the next couple of weeks as we finish our Surrender series with Surrender SELF.
Unfortunately, each of us carries a sin nature that we were born with, so we will all carry a certain amount of debris on us. Throughout our lives, we do have choices as to how much debris we pick up from the places we go and the people we associate with.
No matter how hard life gets, something inside of us convinces us that we shouldn’t ask for help. We try to walk through deep valleys of trial and pain, relying solely on our own strength. In reality, it’s just not possible.
