The Power of Sex-Helping Students Understand God's Plan for Sex

There are not many things in our culture that are more powerful than sex. It sells, it corrupts, it causes people to lie, it binds, and it can even destroy. However, God created Sex to be powerful in another way. A way that connects and unites.

I believe as a parent it is your job to teach them on this subject, likewise, I believe it is my job to partner with you and teach them the truth as well.

Starting February 3rd we will begin our series called “The Power of SEX.” The series will end on March 3rd. We will be looking at God’s Plan for sex and how to follow it. (No JH Gathering on February 17th due to our Ash Wednesday Service. JH students are welcome to join us at 7 pm in the Sactuary and then attend lifeGROUPS at 8 pm)

All sessions will be recorded and I am available to talk with you if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks ahead of time for the opportunity to partner with you on such an important subject.

God Of Second Chances

One of my favorite blogs I read is ragamuffinsoul.com. Carlos is one of the most authentic and honest Christians I have read and follow. He is in the middle of putting out an album and was shooting some video for it and had an unbelievable moment with a man who joins him. What could happen in our lives if we really understood who the creator really is! Enjoy

I love creative stuff...And this is crazy creative!

I believe God is the creator of everything and I think he has done a pretty good job. I also believe that because you and I were made in his image, we are also creative! Where are you being creative in your life? With your family, on your dates, for your homework, at the place you worship.....? Experience all God has for you now and be creative!

I love creativity!

Saw this on a blog I read everyday and realized that The Black Eyed Peas are super creative, but I think God is the ultimate creative one. And if we have been created in his image shouldn't we be creative also? Where in your life are you being creative?

Kanye, Taylor and Beyonce

I am not sure if you watched the MTV VMA's last night, but if you missed it you missed a little bit of craziness. Go here to see the video's and then post your thoughts on here. My questions for you are:

1. Do you tear down or do you build up?
2. Do you rejoice when others rejoice?

I used to love Kanye, but he will no longer get air time in my ear buds!
