Why Don't You Get Involved?

"It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth"

Leviticus 3:27

    On a scale of one to ten, how involved would you say you are in your church?  I know that not every church has a lot of ministry opportunities, but every church needs to be cleaned. Today in his sermon my Pastor said to "dedicate your life the body Christ died for; the church." There are so many places to be involved in a church. Music ministry, children's ministries, outreach, the list goes on. I'm involved in the music ministry at my church, I work in the nursery, and my mom and I clean bathrooms together. I have friends who work in the nursery, clean the church, and work in the media ministry. 

    You might say, "well, I definitely can't sing in church, and I don't know anything about websites, and we don't even have a children's church". Well, there's still things that you can do! Every Sunday morning the young adult guys get to church a little early. They stand in the doorway of the church and open the doors for people. They park the cars for the ladies. Can you walk around and talk to the elderly before service? Give them a handshake or a hug to brighten their day? 

    Leviticus 3:27 reminds us that is good to "bear the yoke" in our youth. If we teens don't start singing in the choir now, who will be there to sing in it in 30 years? If we don't learn how to teach classes for kids now, what will happen in 10 years when the teacher wants to retire cause they "just can't take them 7th graders no more"? It is important that we learn these things now because we are the future of our churches, and we need to take that seriously. Dedicate your life to the body that Christ died for; the church.

The Return of Lester Holmes

It's here!! After many months of much hard work by many people, it's finally done! Thank you to everyone who acted, played, sang, filmed, edited, worked behind the scenes and so many more things! Thank you especially for those of you who had to redo scenes due to me forgetting to turn on the mic on the camera...thankfully it didn't turn out to be a silent film.  We all hope you enjoy the movie (sorry, short film, ha-ha)! Let us know what you think.      And on top of that, today marks 2 years of TEEN CHALLENGE!

Right or Left?

                                                         by Joshua R. Walter of Versailles, Kentucky            Left or Right? You choose. I just wanted to warn you.  “And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.  And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold. And he went on his journeys from the south even to Beth-el, into the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth-el and Hai; into the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD. And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents. And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell tog...
