👑 “Jesus didn’t say ignore the slap—He said transform it.”In this eye-opening youth camp message at week 3 of  ⁨@pineywoodscamp4496⁩  , Pastor Jon Groves unpacks Matthew 5:39 and calls students to respond like citizens of the Kingdom—not the culture. When someone wrongs you, do you react like the world… or reflect your Savior?

📖 Matthew 5:39 (KJV)“But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.”

💥 Jesus doesn’t call us to be passive—He calls us to respond in power and purpose. Not everything deserves your reaction. But everything reveals your character.

🔑 Key Takeaways:What you do when you’re wronged shows who you’re becoming.The Kingdom of God is not about revenge—it’s about redemption.You’re not just a reactor. You’re a reflection of the King.
