Relationships


Most of the seniors came over last night for our seniors of the round table meeting. We talked about upcoming dates and things that we are planning, but we ended our time by talking about the chance they have to make an incredible impact this year. I have never seen a group of seniors that have more potential than this group. They have such a clear vision of what they what to do and they have a plan. Those things together make a dangerous team. I am excited about getting a front row seat to what God is going to do through them.
I think the most amazing thing that I have noticed about this group is their transparency. They are very open with one another. They know their gifts and know their weaknesses but they also know each other's gifts and weaknesses. It is amazing.
More than ever I am convinced that programs, buildings, and trips will never change this generation. Sure they can all be used, but the must be used a tools that lead to purposeful relationships. It is not easy. It takes people who believe they are on the planet for purpose worth their life to build lasting relationships. These guys and girls are getting it. I am excited...more excited than I have been in a long time...apparently God knew what he was talking about with this whole discipleship thing.
