On Youth Ministry & Theology


On Thursday afternoons there is a group of students from the church who gather for scripture study and dinner together. We have been moving our way through Romans, which is quite a book for a youth study. (!)

One gem I discovered within the last two months is to incorporate a paragraph or two from an "accessible" writer within the study. This gives students the a fresh voice which is neither Romans, nor myself; two voices which seem to tire out their thought processes.

Apart from the usual suspects such as C.S. Lewis, two authors which write in a way that the students understand and resonate with are Wayne Grudem & Richard J. Mouw. (Note: I work in a reformed church) In particular, the students love Mouw's Calvinism in the Las Vegas Airport.

Turns out I do too.

That's all for now!

搬家公司是大家都會有的經驗,現在的搬家公司制度完備多了,但選擇時還是要找政府立案的搬家公司,或口碑好的搬家公司為宜。也就是多收集搬家公司的資料,讓搬家達人幫忙完成,上搬家公司網站是不錯的選擇。

Modern medical science is a wonder. Seriously, we live in a time where AIDS is no longer a death sentence and many types of cancers can be sent right into remission.
