Day one
day one was not a normal day one:
we started out by getting here yesterday and registering, only to head out to the mall.
while we were there we got the idea to all buy shirts for each other…they were $7.50 at steve and barry’s so te guys picked out the girls shirts and vice-versa. would you believe we picked out the same shirt!!! here it is in all it’s wonderfulnesss…and we’re all wearing them right now!!!
Then we went to our 1st session, who you would think would be all high energy and up beat. not so much. the whole idea of this conference is to get us to think about our faith, not think in a completely intellectual mind way, but to think with our hearts and interact with Scripture through many different avenues. with no pomp and circumstance invloved, we just worshipped God for a good 30 minutes, no words, no images, no show…just dave powers and his wife tara guiding us along. it was amazing…refreshing…rejuvenating.
Then Jason came up and talked a little but about how we view evangelism. really solid thoughts on how it’s not always about leading someone to Christ, it more about advancing them in their thoughts about Christ, because God may use someone else to lead them to Christ. we al have different roles in sharing our faith, but we are all called to do it.
then we spent another good 15 minutes in worship and got ready to head back to campus for some games and bedtime.
just had breakfast and now everyone is spending an hour alone with God, no guidelines, no questions, no fill in the blanks…just a good hour chilling with their Saviour…speaking of…i’m going to be with Him now~
