DNOW16 Weekend

We took a break from our Jesus and Culture study this Sunday morning and instead met as a large group to conclude our DNOW weekend. The theme of this weekend was FOCUS, based on this scripture:

"Never let loyalty and faithfulness leave you. Tie them around you neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will find favor and high regard in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding; think about Him in all your ways, and He will guide you on the right paths." Proverbs 3:3-6

We broke this verse down into four main points:

  • Bind Love (Matthew 22:34-40)
  • Find Favor (Luke 16:1-12)
  • Trust the Lord (Romans 12:2)
  • Acknowledge Him (Exodus 15:1-21)
If your son/daughter went to DNOW weekend, I encourage to discuss what they learned this weekend, and if they didn't, the main points and scripture references are listed above so you can learn and discuss this lesson as a family. 

We all lose focus of God in the midst of our lives. We become distracted by what the world has to offer, and it can be difficult to find the path to start making our way back to God. But this simple, broken down verse becomes a series of steps we can take to start that journey to get back to God's will for our lives and bring into focus the things that really matter during our short time here on this earth.

Thank you for your involvement in your child's spiritual life. We do all that we can when we have them with us but a lot of it comes down to what they learn from you and we could not do this without you. 

God bless!
