God Is Green

It's been so long since we posted, I don't know where to begin! Let's see, we're on the tail end of our spring season, which has been a beautiful, wonderful season. Let me hit a few high points real quick...

I met Matthew this week. It is great to me to look into someone's eyes and just see joy and passion. He is going to college in the fall and is trying in earnest to follow God's calling on his life. He's a gifted worship leader and seems to really want to serve people and serve the Lord. I ask your prayers for this young man, who I believe God's hand is on to be a leader in the generation to come.

We had the "God is Green" weekend. This particular youth pastor has embraced the idea that God loves all of Creation, and he is convicted by the way we abuse it. We got to be the last part of a series he did. It really drove home the importance of our responsibility when they spent time immersed in God's beautiful creation. I believe they will be part of a positive change in our world. I pray that we all examine our lives the way this group does, and then that our belief aligns with truth, and that our practice follows our belief.
The spring ends in such a natural way with groups coming with us to celebrate graduation, and begin a new phase of life. There have been some really cool students we've met this year, students who are on their way to shape the world that we live in. Students who are working out their faith, to bring the Kingdom of God to Earth.
