DNW2012 > Session 1 Notes
Session 1 > Dr. Alvin Reid Movies > Hollywood helps us understand the Gospel Plot lines: Man falls in a hole; Boy meets girl The Gospel isn’t just something to get you in church to make you act better – its a deep yearning in our hearts that can’t be satisfied by anything else Someone comes to the rescue at the end of the story and they all live happily ever after – we all want a happy ending and we love heroes because there is something deep in our souls that says we want a rescue. Luke 24:44-47 The focus...

Session 2 > Dr. Alvin Reid > Some movements come and go but some last for centuries even millennia – the movement of the Gospel launched with Jesus and his band of believers. Movements can change the world! Matthew 4:18-22 > Jesus offered for these guys to be part of a movement, not an institution. IMMEDIATELY they left everything and followed him. Church should not just a recreational sport! 1. Christianity is a movement. You can’t follow Jesus without moving. We live in a culture where we do the bare minimum until we...

Session 3 > Dr. Alvin Reid The power of Influence If Scripture is true, it is true regardless of our circumstances. There is no fence to ride – Jesus is a gate and he either lets us in or he doesn’t. If you are mad at God you might as well tell him because he already knows. There are some of us who need to put up or shut up in following Jesus The question isn’t are you an influence – what kind of influence are you? Acts 11:19 Barnabas and Saul were sent off to share the Gospel with those who never heard it. 1....

Final Session > Dr. Alvin Reid We can have an intimate relationship with the God of the universe! > Be a part of he ultimate movement! Friendships > the friends you choose will determine your trajectory as much as anything else. Picking the wrong friends can ruin you. You need friends who aren’t believers – otherwise we are in a pathetic Christian bubble. Friends who don’t know Jesus help us stay on Gods mission for our lives. BUT our closest friends should love Jesus!! 1 Sam. 18:1-4 > Jonathan loved God and...

Parent Seminar > Dr. Alvin Reid This generation needs godly men! Can’t dumb down the gospel for students! Need to talk about Jesus at home – should be normal. The Gospel is more than just how to’s – we need to give students the “why”! > Deut. 6:5 3 things parents can demonstrate in the home: 1. We need to demonstrate a hunger for God! What would students say if they were asked what their parents crave more than anything else? 14 year olds are winning gold medals in the Olympics because of their...

1. It’s a new year full of new possibilities! I can’t wait to see what God is going to do in my life, my family, our student ministry, and our church! There is so much potential and so many people that need to be reached for Christ! There is absolutely no limit to what God can do through us when we fully commit ourselves to Him! 2.

Luke 7:11-17 Jesus raised the widows son – interrupted a funeral procession at just the right time. Maybe Jesus is interrupting a funeral procession in your life. If we are living for anything other than Jesus, we are in a funeral procession – heading to death. For some of us there some things that are leading us to our death. No matter what is killing us, Jesus can and will use it and empower you to overcome it for His purpose and glory. God wants to enable you to rise up above your situation and circumstances to accomplish His...

Tomorrow morning I will load up with a group of college students in a van headed to the Georgia Dome in Atlanta for Passion 2012! We are hoping and praying that God will move in massive ways that will profoundly challenge and change us. We would love for you to be a part of the journey a log with us. Even though you won’t be able to be there with us physically, there are some great ways you can connect with us and with what God is doing at Passion 2012. First, you can PRAY for us! Here are some things you can be praying for… >...
read moreThe Wildest Roller Coaster EVER!
Acts 14 I LOVE roller coasters! There’s just something about going really fast with all kinds of unexpected drops, turns and loops! Living in pursuit of Jesus and striving to fulfill His plan for our lives is one of the greatest roller coaster rides we could ever experience! Some days it feels like the world is on top of us, like we have no real friends, like no one appreciates the work we are doing, every door seems to be closed, and we are just about ready to give up and walk away! That must have been exactly what Paul and his friends...
