If only for One

This past weekend we had 58 people go to S.P.E.J. which stands for Swings, Paintball, Eating & Judgment House. It was awesome! We had a bast with the swings and paintball as you can see with the pictures posted. But what is the best is that 2 people accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior. What a Rush. What an Experience.

I am reminded of the words I heard from my parents pastor Jeff Maness "If only for One." In all that we do as a youth minstry and a Church leads at least one to Christ then we have succeeded. But let us not be comfortable or satisfied with reaching only one. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is so much bigger than that. It is the word of truth that reveals the truth of salvation to all. I always want to celebrate a victory, but let's not be satisfied. Sometimes satisfaction is what Satan uses to keep us comfortable. Lets continue reaching out to those who have yet to respond to Christ. Always keep in mind the deliberate mediocrity is a sin and that we shouldn't be satisfied with one. Let's keep pushing and keep loving. You guys are doing a great job.

In Christ,

Brian
