I've noticed that I like to alliterate in my post titles. Just a quirk I've noticed.
Last night we had a church event called Creative Night. Our youth group met and then broke off
into different groups based on what we wanted to do creatively. The groups were music, drama,
tech, art, and dance. I joined the music group, and we were split up into even smaller groups. Half of
us went with Brian Opperman, and the other half went with Sean and Brett Killingsworth. I had the
pleasure of working with Brian, who studied at Hillsong and was part of their worship team for the
past few years. We were given Psalm 63: 1-8, and he just told us to write what the Lord was telling
us. By the end of the night we had a song! I wrote the first verse and the chorus, Brian wrote the
second verse, and Lindsey wrote the bridge. I'm so excited to see where this project is going to go and
how the Lord is going to use it!
Today in class I heard the following conversation:
Jordan:: You know those posters for that church event? I just realized those are for my church!
Kenzie:: Oh really? When is that? I think I might go...
Jordan:: You shouldn't go. My church is really cliquey and no one is nice.
This honestly broke my heart. How bad is the Church as a whole that it's own members are saying
"don't come here"? We as a body of believers should be inviting people in, not turning them away.
