The last couple of weeks, we’ve focused on some basic elements of the Christian faith during our Sunday time together.
On Epiphany Sunday, we focused on seeing Christ in our lives and finding him. Last week, we talked about baptism and how it is a start and not the end to our walk with Christ. This week, we looked at how we are called to follow Christ.
Specifically, we looked at the calling of Andrew as a disciple in John 1. Andrew was certainly seeking something. What was it? Certainly, a closer relationship with God and the truth that Christ brought was it.
Youth today are also in a place of seeking. They are seeking to find out who they are as students, as athletes, as citizens, and even as Christians. In fact, youth are no different than many adults who are still trying to match their passions with their life.
That’s the challenge for youth. To seek Christ, to find their passions in life, and press forward. But, how do you do that. It’s easy.
1) Read the Bible. (Make sure the dust is off it first.)
2) Pray. (Seek God’s guidance in your life.)
3) Be in fellowship with other Christians.
4) Listen for God.
But, ultimately, seek the Kingdom of God first and everything else will follow in place.
