Whether in youth group, at school, or while hanging out with friends; there will always be disagreements with others over differences of opinion, conviction, or belief.

YOUTH WORKER WEEKENDS

The Bible. Ancient and true, why the Bible remains relevant for you.  

The Bible is the one of the most ancient books that most people have in their possession. So, why should I continue to look to, listen to, study, and share this book? In this elective the leader will show students that the Bible (though old) is not only true but is still very much relevant for them and the world we live in. This elective will also give guidance in how to read, study, and apply God’s Word.

Stewardship. What should I do with what God’s given me? 

God’s common grace is shown to us all in the things we are given each day. So, how do we respond and what do we do with these things? This elective will focus on stewarding what God has blessed each of us with, whether that be time, relationships, money, possessions, etc. In this elective the leader will show students how to, with thanksgiving and praise, do well with what God’s given them, especially in light of the reality that God has and is restoring all things.

Purity. What do purity and restoration have to do with each other? 

Purity. It’s a word both Christians and non-Christians may cringe upon hearing. After all, who is or desires to truly be pure in all their thoughts, words, and deeds? In this elective, the leader will show that “pure” is not something we by nature are. Rather, “pure” is what Christ came to restore us to. Furthermore, purity isn’t something we pursue in order to become holy or even boast in our holiness. Rather, the pursuit of purity is what ought to naturally flow out of the work of Christ restoring us.

Calling. God’s calling you… to what? 

Some students feel called to professional ministry. Many don’t. In this elective the leader will show that God’s call isn’t something only pastors, youth leaders, and missionaries receive; nor is it something you have to wait to receive until you’re older. No, God calls all His redeemed children (young and old) to live lives in accordance with His will and unto His glory. This is God’s call. Of course, this isn’t a call we need to wait for, for we’ve already been called. Children are called to be honorable toward their parents. Students are called to be respectful to their teachers. We’re all called to be loving toward others. This elective will explore this doctrine of calling.
