Stop and Think

2 Corn. 5- The Message:
Christ's love compels us. His love has the first and last word in everything we do.

Does His love compel you? Does God's love have the first and last word in everything you do?

I'm honored to hear the stories of how YL kids are compelled by God's love. Tonight at book club- hearing that God created over 100 types of bananas, 3,000 species of trees within one square mile of the jungle, and He is Holy, Eternal, All-Knowing, and All-Powerful. We are wanting out of our routine to experience this Crazy Love and be compelled by it. Do you think about whom you are praying to? The creator of all things? The Holy One. Tonight I stand in awe as I think about the greatness of God.

5 C's of Young Life

Club: Club is our once a weekly event that lets kids be kids. We give kids the opportunity to be kids again by singing, dancing, and playing crazy games. Students hear a message from the Bible in terms they can understand. YL club is for everyone, no matter where they stand in their faith.

Contact Work: Where there are high school kids there are YL leaders. We believe in earning the right to be heard by building friendships with kids. We come to their turf, whether that's sporting events standing in the stands beside them or coming up to after school and grabbing a Sonic.

Campaigners: Campaigners are small groups made up of students and a leader committed to sharing their lives, struggles, and joys with one another. Student grow deeper in their faith as they explore the Bible and God's love in a life-changing way.

Camp: Young Life states...."Camp is the best week of your life." That is a proven fact. Kids get the chance to have adventure camping at resort quality facilities and share an unforgettable experience. Kids get to leave their normal routine while they hear about and process the need for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Church: Young Life is not the church. We desire our students to be a part of local a congregation. If our students are ready to go deeper we strongly encourage them to attend a local church.
