The only thing that matters is faith expressing itself through love.

CIY MOVE Closing Thoughts

My voice is hoarse; my head hurts from so many bright, flashing lights; sweaty clothes; ...no more clothes; late nights and early mornings; did I say my voice was hoarse?

But because of the life change that took place this weekend, the leaders and I would do it all over again, and again, and again, until every one of these students knows God and how great He is.

There have been many students who have decided to rededicate their lives, which basically means that they realized that they have messed up and they want to publicly admit their sin and continue on the right path.

Many students have taken their faith one step further. A number of these students openly requested to join the youth group leadership team; a number of these students are wanting to partner with other organizations to help spread the word about other people's misfortunes.

And even some say they also want to spread The Word and get involved in vocational ministry. Music, missions, and students ministries were the ones that were the most popular.

And, hopefully they will seek the assistance of their peers and their parents. There were multiple challenges to accountability (Hebrews 6:1-2) and to strive and train for godliness. Our prayer is that they not leave what they have learned behind here in Cleveland, TN, but they boldly proclaim the name of Jesus in their high schools, their college campuses, their families, and their friends.

In Christ,
chase
