[RISE Weekly] Put the Sluggard to Death! 🐌
Join us TONIGHT @ Behnans from 6:30-8:30! Dgroup Hangouts next week! John Summer Challenge Winners & Prize!
Dear Parents,
I am SUPER pumped to be back at youth TONIGHT after coming back from India! Sheeeeeessshhhh!!!! I missed preaching the Word to your students and playing the most ridiculous games. I hope to even see some of you parents tonight! It would be such a joy for myself and our staff if you came to chat with us before or after youth - we’ve got plenty of parking and you’re free to stay for as long as you want. 😊
YOUTH TONIGHT @ THE BEHNAN’S! 🐌
Join us TONIGHT (8/30), from 6:30–8:30 PM at the Behnan Home (36750 Robin Scott St, Murrieta, CA 92562) as we CONCLUDE our Jr High Survival Guide! ⚔️
TONIGHT, we will open up the Word of God to 2 Thessalonians 3:6-15 and proclaim “Death to the Sluggard!” Paul warns the LAZY Thessalonian sluggards acting like busybodies to WAKE UP and follow his example of a disciplined life. Our students need the same wake up call. Their jr high years should not be filled with just video games, social media, and Netflix. God has given us all the gift of WORK (yes, a GIFT given to man BEFORE the fall). Right now, the Jr Higher’s job is to be a hard-working, disciplined student and child in the home. Laziness is a SIN and does NOT bring God any glory. I pray that students will be encouraged by His Word to kill their sin of laziness tonight!
TABLE TALK THIS SUNDAY🔨
This Sunday (9/3) during 1st service, we will continue our “Table Talk” series with the following:
Question: How many persons are there in God?
Answer: There are three persons in the one true and living God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. They are the same in substance, equal in power and glory.
Key Passage: 2 Corinthians 13:14
Each Sunday, we will introduce a new important topic like this but we encourage you to take it a step further and discuss the topic with your children at home as well!
D-GROUP HANGOUTS NEXT WEDNESDAY! 🤙🏽
NEXT Wednesday (9/6) we will have Discipleship Group Hangouts! This means that each grade/gender group will be meeting at a separate location to hangout and do something fun together! This is an excellent opportunity for students to build relationships with other students in their group as well as their staff leaders who disciple them. Exact details for each group will be sent out via email next week!
