God is Good

Well, last night we had another stellar night at >>beyond>>

We had our highest attendance since I have been on staff, and our youth room is looking better and better every week. But most importantly God has been showing up and changing lives.

We have one kid, who I would say isn’t really serving God, but the last three weeks he has brought a different friend each week. He’s on mission and I don’t even think he has fully devoted himself to Christ yet. It’s crazy how the kids who know they don’t have it all together are often the ones that are most willing to bring friends to church with them. I’m reminded of Andrew, “we think we found the Messiah, come see.” Very exciting.

Last night I also got to speak with a guy who’s actually out of high school, and he’s been hanging around because his friends are still here. But we had a prayer time last night and we talked and he shared how he’s not 100% on board with God and Christianity, but he’s taking his time. I was so proud of him, he’s been through a lot in his life, and he knows that this whole faith thing is not just about the decision it’s about the journey.

I left the youth service last night just refreshed by what God was doing in our ministry and in our students lives. God is so good.
