“Following Jesus and Loving People”
This past weekend, we had special services and a partnership weekend that highlighted “Next Generation Ministries”! Jesus, in what we call the Great Commission, commanded us to disciple and teach others to “obey everything I have commanded you” (Matt. 28:20). I believe obeying Jesus means we start where we are, with our own “Jerusalem”…the children and youth all around us. To love, pray, and invest in young people assures the growth of God’s kingdom for the years ahead. In a very real sense, the transfer of our Christian values and relationship with Jesus is the best inheritance gift we can ever give. Most people in America want the youth of our nation to succeed, but don’t offer a clear path. Telling them to “just be happy” offers no real wisdom. The “mist” of moral advice coming from today’s leaders creates a “fog” in the hearts of youth. My heart breaks for so many young people I meet who are reaping the results from the lostness of the previous generation. There is HOPE! The Good News of Jesus explodes with truth and power, enabling change that really works. The answers to the great questions of life are found in God’s Word. The writer of Ecclesiastes condensed his advice to the young in one simple statement…“Remember your Creator in the days of your youth” (Ecc. 12:1). Next Generation Ministries is about training and challenging young people to “remember” God in every area of life. The leaders of NGM are followers of Jesus who have discovered that God is faithful and that true life begins with a relationship with God through Jesus. Our desire is for every child and young person to “remember their creator” by loving him each day and living according to his Word. The task is great and sometimes feels overwhelming, but together we can make a difference for eternity. Would you dedicate yourself to “building a family that serves our community”? Let’s start by investing in our greatest resource…the youth!
