REINVENTING OURSELVES

1 Cor. 9:22
To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some.

Wednesday night we viewed a documentary on the youth and young adult ministry of Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia. The United praise and worship band just released their newest CD – United We Stand. Again, they’ve outdone themselves with more than music. There’s such a sense of God’s involvement in their work.

As we viewed the video I took note of their humility, unity and genuine passion for God. That attitude has carried them from a local church youth group with a band that knew only three songs- to a worldwide worship movement. We talked about the desire to emulate the attitude that God blesses in our own youth church. After watching the video we asked students what they got out of it. Because of time limitations we had to cut things short, so I asked students and leaders to email their comments. Here are some of the comments. Please, offer your opinion so others can be inspired.

PLEASE KEEP YOUR CRITICISM TO A MINIMUM and don’t even offer it unless it’s done in a constructive way with possible solutions presented. Keep a good heart.
