What an amazing weekend we had together at Caswell!

Our group shared meals, devotion, and plenty of laughs as we joined other students from NC at the CBFNC Youth Retreat. We reflected on Joseph’s story in Genesis. Joseph went through years of abuse and suffering, but he continued to trust that God was there for him.

We know that life is not always fair. We will go through pain and difficult times, but when God is with us, we are still standing! In our group discussions, we talked about how we can still find God through our challenges. I hope our students know that we will always be able to uplift each other and lean on each other for support!

The Youth are heading to Caswell this weekend for a retreat! We will be following Joseph’s story in Genesis, and learning about how Joseph trusted God in tragic and unpredictable situations.

We will be joining together in worship, Bible studies, and adventures! Please pray for our youth and adults as they grow in their relationships with God and each other.

Is Doubt Okay?

We have all wrestled with hard questions about God and the Bible. The world is messy and chaotic. We see people we love go through hard situations. It’s easy to question where God is, or why God isn’t answering us when we cry out.

We started our gathering with a game called Box of Lies. Everyone took turns picking a box, looking at what was in it, and deciding if they wanted to tell the truth about what was in the box or make up a lie. Some of them are good fibbers!

Then we talked about different kinds of doubts, and how we feel about sharing them with people we trust. As we read about Thomas in John 20:24-29, we witnessed Jesus treating Thomas with kindness and understanding after Thomas told the disciples he doubted Jesus was alive after seeing him die on the cross. We also read Psalm 88, and encountered the psalmist’s raw pain and anger as they asked God why God would reject them.

It is okay to have doubts. It is okay to be mad at God. It is okay to say your doubts out loud. God will not abandon us because we have doubts. Find the people in your life whom you trust, and talk to them about your feelings. We aren’t meant to go through the world alone!

Where is Jesus?

At the beginning of every Youth meeting, we let everyone take turns sharing a Joy (something good that happened during the week), a Junk (something that bummed them out), and a Jesus (how they experienced Jesus during the week). In our busy lives, it can be so hard to recognize when Jesus makes an appearance.

We did a scavenger hunt around the church to find Jesus! Any time they saw something that reminded them of Jesus, we took a picture.

Then, we read Luke 2:41-52. Did you know Jesus’ parents lost him?! They all went to Jerusalem to celebrate Passover. When they started their journey home, they realized Jesus wasn’t with them. Frantically, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him. After three days of searching, they found Jesus in the temple learning from the teachers.

Sometimes, we might feel like Jesus is missing. When we look at the world around us, it’s easy to get wrapped into the negativity, and harder to see where Jesus is at work. We talked about the ways we can challenge ourselves to find Jesus this week!

At the end of our meeting, John and Emily, the newest Youth members, signed the Youth Covenant!

Youth begins the fall season on Sunday, September 13th at 3:00pm!

We will have supper with Pastor Dallas, then we will go on a hunt for Jesus around the church. How many things will you find that represent Jesus?

At the beginning of each Youth gathering, we share a Joy, Junk, and Jesus (where you share how you’ve seen Jesus at work during the week). With our busy schedules, it can be a challenge to be aware of where Jesus is present. This activity and discussion will help us focus our minds on where Jesus appears each day!
