Youth News: Sep. 12, 2019
Thursday July 2nd, 2020Hi Youth,
Just a friendly reminder that mission conference is next week! As we set our heart for God’s Mission, let us take time to discover the traits of the Holy Spirit. In Isaiah 11:1-2 we read this,
Out of the stump of David’s family will grow a shoot—
yes, a new Branch bearing fruit from the old root.
2 And the Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—
the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and might,
the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.
In today’s reading from the book of Isaiah, we learn about God’s heart for the remnant of Israel. Remnant means what is left of a community after it faced suffering. Throughout history, God’s people have faced persecution. Whether from nations or people groups, God’s people need prayer. In knowing this, let us unite and pray for God’s people. That they will bear the fruits of His Spirit: wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge, and the fear for the Lord.
Blessings,
Sam

Free Parent Seminar
Feeding the Mouth That Bites You
Wed. September 18, 7:00 p.m.
Cabot Theater @ The King’s Academy
Dr. Ken Wilgus, a well-know Christian licensed psychologist from Dallas, knows parenting teens can be hard! Well-meaning, loving, and motivated parents often struggle with their teenagers – in part because of cultural influences. Dr. Wilgus clearly outlines his method for safely and effectively meeting this need: Planned Emancipation. Once parents clearly understand adolescents’ needs and know how to respond, parenting a teenager becomes much less frustrating. Even their teenagers join in to help out! Don’t miss this practical and helpful seminar.
This event is free and open to the public, so please share this information with family and friends!
