This is my small group. We meet Tuesday nights at youth group for about an hour. We are only missing one student from the group but these are the best group of guys. They have some good energy and are ready to learn. I owe them all lunch so I am going to have to pay my debt to them here soon. It's very exciting working with them and getting to know them. They have already grown a lot since Sept. 11th and I am excited to see where God take them.


We are currently going through our second book. It is called Connecting Your Hearts to Others’. Its by Doug Fields and his crew at Simply Youth Ministry. This book is a fresh and powerful ways to draw your students closer to each other—and to God. This volume of the Life Together series focuses on the essence of fellowship, a value that is universally endorsed yet infrequently—or insufficiently—put into practice. There are six sessions in this book series and focus on leading you to opening of your heart to God in ways you never knew possible.

I am hoping that this book will open up the students and challenge them in their walk with Christ. I am going to challenge them in many ways over the next 4 weeks and hopefully shake the ground they walk on to see how they react as a way to make sure we are connecting with God. Hopefully this book will prepare them for some type of service opportunity.

I am excited to see where God is going to take this group. I am blessed to have them opportunity to serve with them and I hope that God will bless them over the next school year.
