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…

productiveness: drama edition

sometimes its hard to really put in words what happens at ALIVE.
short version?

prayer time.
brainstorm of tv shows... spongebob, high school musical, the office.
realize how old some of us are (why do people now not know what Central Perk is?  or what a Billy Graham Crusade is?  just sayin...)
assigning scripts.
burger king on fire.
God in a box.
God in a super-sized box.
one voice of reason.
what's YOUR story?  
please sit down, Mike.
"i just have this friend..."
hunger games.
some living room time.
God cannot be compartmentalized - He needs to be in EVERY part of your life.
piano playing,
more brainstorming.
seeing-eye camel.
laughing,
and wrap it all up with asking - 
what is God doing in YOUR life?
not just what did He do when you asked Him into your heart with your mom when you were 5 - but what is He doing NOW?  what has He done since then?
if someone wants you to tell them how you know that God is real - 
it won't help to hear that one time you heard, you think, that someone in Africa healed somebody...
so He must be.
they want to hear what He's doing in YOU.  
if you don't have an answer?  then you are probably missing something...
God is alive and moving and will never run out of things to show us.
so meet with Him,
hang out with Him,
get to know Him........
and once you experience Him, once you find out for yourself what it is about God that is just so amazing - 
share it!

in case none of that made sense... the really short version of what we did?
dramas.
we got to see everyone acting :)
and really really great to see that they are all very good at it... lots of different styles.
perfect.
its almost like God knows what He's doing or something... ;)

so be prepared to see some of these dramas in the near future.
good stuff...

and its not too late to check it out!
