Ministering in “the Middle”: Relating to Students As They Discover Who They Are in Christ
As our students discover their identities in Jesus Christ, may we point them to the very one who is in “the middle” of every life circumstance.
Because God’s mercies in Christ are transforming mercies, we must have a new mindset of service to the body of Christ in this life.
As our students discover their identities in Jesus Christ, may we point them to the very one who is in “the middle” of every life circumstance.
By his grace and through his Spirit, we can offer our children a more encouraging and fruitful way to live in the world of youth sports.
“I am free to rest in my identity as a beloved child of God and allow that love to spill over to my kids.”
Children should work knowing their identity lies in being redeemed by a loving God, not in being the family messiah.
I have taken something good—an activity my child is gifted in or a desire for my child to be involved—and turned it into a functional savior.
Our ministries cannot sit on the throne of our hearts if Jesus is already sitting there.
