Student Ministries 411- May 19th

Youth Wednesday Night at 6:45 PM

Tomorrow night is the last night of small groups for the year!

For this Wednesday, we will finish with ice cream in celebration. And that’s what Pastor Nathan wants to do, take the command of Scripture to praise God, to ascribe to Him the works He has done this year in his life and in the life of this ministry. This devotional lesson is a good conclusion to another year of the Lord’s steady hand.

Some questions you can ask:

1) How are you different now than you were at the beginning of the year?

2) What things happened this year that were a big deal to you? What did you learn in those moments?

3) How can we encourage one another over the summer?

May Book Recommendation

One of my favorite practical theologians, Paul David Tripp, wrote this book at the turn of the century. Though over 25 years old, it’s timeless in its wisdom and practical insights as Tripp examines the heart of our words, or to say it a different way: our words reflect our heart. 
We say and type thousands of words on the daily, and know the power of words. Words can build up or tear down. Words can inform or mislead. Words can give life or take it. Our God, who speaks and communicates through His Word, has gifted us with language and capacity to communicate with one another. The question then becomes: what do our words communicate about the state of our heart, and what are the effects of the words spilling out of our mouths? 
I love Tripp’s book because it addresses these kinds of questions, and calls us to the better Word (Jesus) and how one speaks in light of being a follower of Him. This book has been a personal challenge and blessing to me over the years, and the Lord has used it to remind me and reshape me moment by moment. May the Lord be so kind to use this book in a similar way in your life, and may our people be marked as a people in whole devotion to Him, even and especially in the way we speak with one another!

Lost & Found

Over the months, items tend to get left around our church property. Jackets, water bottles, even keys have been found! In the coming weeks we will be emptying out our lost and found (located on the North Side of the Building near the backstage of the worship center)…if you have lost an item and have been in search for it, please take a look at our lost and found closet. Happy hunting!
