Time To Shine!

Coming to year 7 of serving this youth ministry and being in our Shine Series, I am convinced that it is time for our youth to shine. I believe God can rock this city with this young generation. We as parents and ministers of God's word have a mandate to raise and train our youth to shine for God's purpose. Here are three practical things to focus on in getting our youth trained up to Shine for Jesus.

1) Have them read their word daily.
2) Make sure they are praying to God Daily
3) Ask them what they are hearing from God to make sure that they are learning to hear from God for themselves.

All these are very important, however not as a legalistic ritual that we'll hang our hats on by any means. Jesus needs to be the passion of our students. As parents we need to taste test this constantly and guide them as needed. Great things are waiting to happen on the other side of those inconvenient, uncomfortable, and confronting conversations we will have with our teens.

Love you all


Jean
