enRoute


Sr. High Winter Retreat 2012. WOW!

Of course, it was a wonderful weekend of bonding, fellowship, learning and fun....but what will stick?

God's movement in our midst.

The entire weekend was based on the concept of being enRoute. When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we start a journey of faith. We must press on, through thick and thin, towards Christ-likeness which comes from being transformed through Jesus Christ.

Here are just a few of the questions and statements that God used to challenge us in our faith!
  • God doesn't love you because of what you do; and God does not love you less because of what you've done.
  • How would you spend the first week of your life if you had thought you were going to die, but didn't? The reality remains that we all face this daily. As sinners, our fate is death and wrath, but Jesus Christ died to save us from our sin, to give us life! In Christ, we were supposed to die, but instead have been raised to life. 
  • If Jesus came to us in this moment, how would we react? How do we believe that Jesus would react to us? Now step back and think about how those reactions could or should change? What holds us back from connecting with Christ? 
  • Does following Jesus feel like an adventure to you? 
  • What are some risky steps we can take that would move us forward on our journey of faith and closer to Jesus?
