What does it truly mean to exist—and why were we created? In this youth teaching from Pinnacle Retreat Center, the 412 Students walk through Scripture to discover that our identity and purpose are not self-defined but God-given. Drawing from Genesis 1:26–28, Isaiah 43:6–7, Revelation 4:11, and Psalm 84:1–2, 10, this session shows that we were created in God’s image, for God’s glory, and for our greatest joy.

Students are challenged to see that true fulfillment isn’t found in popularity, success, or self-expression, but in glorifying the God who made us and calls us His own. This message invites students to reorient their lives around God’s purpose and to find lasting joy in living for Him alone.
