Student Life Day 4

Today was our last full day at Student Life, and tonight turned from great to incredible.  During our Youth Pastor meeting, the camp speaker asked us about where we thought our students were because he was not getting a real clear direction on what to speak on.  Well, we learned that he was not getting direction from the Lord on what to speak on because the answer was nothing.  The Holy Spirit decided to simply take up the whole time with His presence, and students being ministered to during this time.  Seriously, no talk.  The speaker just called out different things, call to ministry, addiction, brokenness, hurt, etc. and then an 1200 person prayer meeting simply broke out.  With students praying for each other, and falling flat on our faces, and crying out to the Lord.

It was a real, authentic, Spirit of God night.  We had many of our students in our ministry share about words they heard the Lord speak to them during worship, sensing the Holy Spirit leading them to respond in certain ways during worship, and being obedient to minister to their peers when the Spirit of God laid in on their hearts. 

Just to give you an idea, here are some direct quotes from our students during the youth group share time afterwards:

"I have never felt closer to God, and it is the most awesome thing I have ever experienced."
"I don't want a normal life, I want the life God has for me, and I know that's not normal"
"Tonight, I experienced God's pleasure"

Yeah, these are your sons and daughters expressing this insight into what the Lord is doing in their lives.  Great stuff!! Thank you so much, parents for allowing them to come and experience the life changing love, grace, and presence of the Lord.  I kept thinking this week, man it would be awesome for everyone's parents to be here as well and experience this as well.

Student Life Day 1

Today was day 1 of Student Life, and we made here just fine.  We are staying at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC and the campus is beautiful.  Today, we checked in and had orientation, had dinner, our students had their family group Bible Study time, and then to the nightly worship service.  The worship service was amazing.  Todd Agnew is leading worship, and is doing an awesome job.  I'll be honest, I had my doubts, but he is doing a great job.  It is incredible to see our Middle School students engage in worship.  Tonight, the speaker Dave Edwards talked about how God is always at work in our life, and we may have signposts in our life to signify certain stages or ways the Lord wants to work in and through us.  We may be in a time of Rescue - salvation or Release - dealing with forgiveness or a time to need to trust the Lord against all odds, or a time to release and let go maybe a habit or relationship, or a maybe needing a stage or season of renewal.  It was very good, and the Holy Spirit led our CrossRoads group down the path of forgiveness and not harboring bitterness during our youth group share time.  It was really great.  There is something special about hearing 13 and 14 year olds open up their hearts and minds to discuss deep things of the Lord.

By the way, you can click here to "Find Your Student at Camp". You can view pictures, listen live to our service, and even send them an email that will be printed out and hand delivered to them.  So, parents, friends take a couple of minutes if you have time.

Thanks for all your prayers.  Will try and update tomorrow.
