Poop, Poop, Poop...and More Poop!!!

Hello Parents!
For those of you who were there last night, you understand the title of this description of last night!!! Man last night was awesome! I loved having you guys (parents/guardians) apart of the worship experience! The message was part 2 of a series, "Broadcast." where we as a ministry have been looking at how to broadcast our faith to others. Last night we aimed to answer the question how...as in how do I share my faith or how do I broadcast the message of Jesus Christ to others.

I used a story from Luke 8 to answer that question. In the story Jesus tells of a Farmer that throws seed on four different types of soil. In the story the Farmer is God, the Seed is the good news of Jesus Christ and the soil is our hearts. I challenged your student(s) last night to be the fourth kind of "soil" or fourth kind of heart. Jesus describes this heart as the one that receives the "Good News" and clings to it with their life! I encouraged the students last night and the parents who were in attendance as well to cling to Christ as the answer to the question...how do I broadcast Christ to others. I believe it is when we are fully in love with Christ and fully devoted to Him that in turn we have NO problems talking about Him or living out His commands in front of others!

Next week we will finish up this series with answering the question...who? Who are we called to broadcast to? Please continue to be in prayer for this ministry as we have such a long journey ahead of us. Last night for those of you who were not there, I told the parents that our aim is Colossians 2:6-7. This verse is our goal. It is a high goal but I believe it is high because it forces myself and the other leaders to rely on God. Please pray for next week and also take the time to talk to your son or daughter about last nights message. And thanks again for those of you who came out last night, I really appreciate it!
