a team of young people learning what it means to have gifts from God to use for His glory…and how powerful they are when we step back and let Him use them…

Proverbs

-Proverbs-

Soo....... 

Maybe not the proverbs you're thinking of :)

My good friend Clayton is part of an improv team and this is an awesome game that they play...
Everyone sits in a circle, and you go around the circle and each person says one word that makes up one single proverb. 

And then when (as a group) you feel the proverb is complete, raise your pointer finger in the air and say in unison "Ahhhhhhhh!" 

So... sounds dumb and simple

But... in actuality its probably the best thing in the world.

The idea is to go as fast as you can and just say the very first thing that pops into your head and not really think at all. One of the basic concepts of improv! Building off of the last person to speak in a spontaneous thinking-on-your-feet way! 

Here were some of the best ones of the night, with some captions! 
(You will start to see patters of words that people like to use... and notice that the shorter ones seem to be the best!)

- Children like weave. (As in ghetto weave...)

- Llamas love hats and Jamaica People when they go to the bathroom.

- Coats sometimes are hairy if llamas were made by coats. (Llama sighting #1)

- Chairs could have babies if they broke legs.

- Cucumbers are dressed up with Earth's cucumbers because Earths cucumbers ranch.

- Waterfalls fall. (Ooohh.. Thats deep...)

- Fortune cookies break easily because when my sister steps on the cookie it crumbles like a spirit. (Depressing one of the night)

- Antilopes eat leather people on the avalanches. (Eating people sighting #1)

- Trees are eating green life out of the can.

- Pineapples are prickly because pumpkins disguised friendship into pineapples. 

- Phones call people when donkeys are singing carols around hats.

- Doors open when life jumps them out of windows. (Windows sighting #1)

- Bubbles break when bubbles are doing naughty things.

- Hammers pound with tails and Gangam style friendship. (Probably one of the best everrr...)

- Potatoes can jump around windows when they're hyper because they want to eat people. 

- Whiteboards clear off children after they're mistakes are killed by evil because evil is something children hate.

- Killing is not a sad decision to killers because they are killers that eat refrigerated people. (Killers sighting #1)

- Sheep disgust killers because of the childhood memories of leprosy. 

- Compassion makes love possible when zebras actually go to the bathroom.

- Serial swims in cows.

- Coffe tastes like smurfs.
- Dreams vomit love all the night long. (also very deep...)
- Cast my potato on eggs benedict movies, can you feel the love tonight?
- Art smells like roses when they poop.
- Fighting chickens is cool in space.
- He whom may fall into clouds will die a long soft squishy miserable death.
- Life sometimes gives lemons for squeezing because people hate juice.

Now we begin the constant use of souls, magic, gnomes and gingers... too funny!

- Sweatshirts keep myself cold because they have spiky icicles inside of my soul.
- Gingers are friendly and nice people but they bite. 
- Pain is very nice and it could save many children gnomes. 
- Zebras have trees but they aren't with fun doves because they don't really have souls just because they're souls are rotten gingers.
- Sometimes broken pieces fit together in a lovely llama.
- Vitamins eat water and souls.
- Evil people fall asleep during snow storms because frolicking frogs also are midgets and gnomes.
- Meadows create peace and packman eskimos.
- Flowers have ugly horns because flowers like mean flowers.
- Tables are strong and hold many magical gingers. 
- Dungeons keep magical swords and dragons and bamboos until life throws you off a cliff.
- Chairs are safe chairs because beat-boxing chairs have boombox legs.
- Burning fires can prevent cancer. (I'm not sure if you were aware! Let us enlighten you... and save the world while we're at it.)

Next is our ALIVE-ness themed one...
- Friendship is epic when friendship is apple picking because team likes toats magotes.

didn't go so well... but its interesting nonetheless :)

- Dreams are something that magical unicorns only dream about with gnomes and pretty clovers during special gingers dreams. 
- Lockers are safes of joy and happiness of my soul.
- Bubbles pop even when africans bernie.

At this point we said... "NO MORE SOULS, AND NO MORE GINGERS!" And this is what we got...

- Crushing cones is deceitful when midgets are soulless gingers. 


Gotta love those Alive kids! So fun hanging out with other godly creative people!
See you next time!
