inspiration

Hey, 
So i have been rather busy lately... mostly because i have been very focused on doing my very best to achieve what i believe is the goal of confirmation.  I believe that by the end of confirmation youth should be able to articulate their relationship with God and with Jesus Christ their savior  without hesitation.  They should be able to start digging into their faith with the understanding that no matter what they ask no matter how they ask it the bottom line is that they are forgiven and loved children of God.  

While doing this i also started to focus on my HS group with the anticipation that i can make our weekly wednesday night meetings/Bible studies are meaningful and helpful to the teens that are part of our group.  I ordered a book on the recommendation of my aunt who has never read the book but thought it sounded good!  The name of this book is "Do Hard Things:  a teenage rebellion against low expectation"  

this book was written by alex and brett harris who are 19 year old twins who live in oregon.  Their book has inspired me to be more efficient with my time and talents while i encourage my youth to step up to God's expectations which are HARD.
