I must say it has been an incredible weekend.
My weekend actually started out on Thursday afternoon. I picked up three of the guys from my youth group and kidnapped them (okay with their parents permission). We headed down to my in-laws house in DeLand, FL. It's about a 4.5 hour - 5hour drive from Charleston. It was a great trip, a little rainy, but good.
On Friday we headed to Orlando to spend the day at Universal Studios Florida! This has to be one of my favorite places in the States. I love movies, and an entire theme park dedicated to some awesome stimulating visual effects and great rides is my idea of fun! Plus an added bonus, there were hardly any lines! I seriously think the longest line we stood in was only about 12 minutes.
We headed back to Charleston on Saturday and had a great conversation about church and youth group. One of my jobs as a youth pastor is to develop fully devoted followers of Jesus. And part of that means getting these guys to think outside of the box when it comes to church. My question for them was if you weren't a Christian and never have stepped in a church what would draw you? Tough question huh? Well what would your answer be? Send a comment and lets get some discussion on that.
I really want to do our youth group totally different and want it to draw teenagers every week...so how do we do that? Any ideas?
