… and we’re all alive… even me! We had a great time at Acquire the Fire. Several teens re-commited their lives, many lost their inhibitions in worship and nobody wanted to come back (well… except for me). The focus of the sessions were about losing the brand of the world and becoming known for the brand of Christ. It was a much needed trip with far reaching benefits.
This month at FlipSide I’m speaking about “How to Lose a Friend.” Yes you read that right. Last night I taught on gossip and the power of our tongue. Using a knife as an illustration I demonstrated how our words are sharp instruments able to speak life or death into another. I shared the importance of being a friend that others can trust. Next week I’ll talk about being selfless with our friends and not putting ourselves first.
I want to thank all of you for the effort you put into helping your teens bring their friends to FlipSide@LARGE last month. It was a huge success. We averaged 40-45 teens throughout the month and broke 50 one week. We saw 7 salvations and had multiple teens respond to the alter calls. God is certainly stirring the hearts of our youth to spread the truth and be fearless in their faith. Please continue to partner with your teen in helping them to bring their friends. God is doing great things in FlipSide and I don’t want a single person to miss it. Thanks again for all you do.
P.S. We will be having a movie night on April 20th from 7-930p in the FS room during the marriage conference. Please bring your teen along with $5 and we’ll also feed their bellies.
Gods & Yours,
Matthew
