Big Chill Session 2

Hey there everyone, greetings from a snowy Mears, MI. It has been snowing nonstop up here which is fantastic, because now everything is open and ready for us. Broomball, tubing hill, and snow football!

Here are some of the details from the first session.

- our speakers name is Tom Thelen, He brought the house down this morning with his story and how we can overcome adversities.

- Tom spoke about his struggles with school and his family and how he had to go into an intervention when he was a sophomore in high school. He was running from God, and straight into the worlds arms.

- He gave 6 actions steps on how to correct your character and align yourself with Christ.
- Feelings - Thoughts - Words - Actions - Habits - Character

- Each of the dashes represent choices that each student has.

- He ended with reading Hebrews 12:15, and talked about how a roots of bitterness can grow in our hearts against God and others, and how we can use those 6 steps to grow closer to Christ with our choices.

Questions to ask your student when they get home:

1. How did you like the worship band?
2. What of the 6 steps stuck out to you?
3. Is there any roots of bitterness that you have towards anyone?
4. Do you think the path that you are on leads to Christ or to destruction?
5. What choices can you make to start renewing your mind for Christ?

I will have another recap tonight, it might be really late because we don't end our programing until almost 1:30am tonight!

Have a great relaxing Saturday!
