Give us your top 3 Bible character favorites.
Can we just hang out here? Where is somewhere you want to remain?
Have you been to church camp? Where did you go? What do you remember most? You can’t stay around the campfire.
In real life, the majority of your life is spent down from the mountain or not around the campfire. So now what? How do you go from a moment of mountaintop high to everyday living of routine and schedule?
Mountaintop moments give you the experience of living life with joy and excitement. These moments also remind you to be on the lookout for where God’s glory shows up in the everyday. You are called to seek out joy wherever you find yourself.
Is there something you are giving up or adding for Lent? Sacrifice something in order to remember the sacrifice that Jesus made for us. Don’t remove something just to remove something, remove something or add something so that when we do or don’t do that thing we are focusing on Jesus, not the thing we are adding or removing. That thing, is only a tool.
