This December, we will be beginning a new series in the High School class on Sunday mornings entitled, "Unbalanced." I am really excited about the teaching that can take place through this series. We would love for you to be a part of this series. If you have stories, a testimony, or any other input that you feel would be an asset to this class, please let me know. If you have seen just how unbalanced life can be without God at the head, please talk to me and let us see how you can be involved in this series.The goal in this new series is to help our teens to understand the power of following Christ in a new light. That living a life for Christ would be defined as "unbalanced" by the world's definition.This is the series premise:So much of our world calls us to balance. Balance school work with jobs, family time with church time, play time with responsibilities. Has this balance compromised our spiritual relationship with God? Christ didn’t call for balance. HE was a radical. HE threw everyone off balance. HE called people to a new way of life. A life, focused on God and HIS way. That calling has changed the world forever. God doesn’t want to be balanced into our schedule, HE wants to be in control of every aspect of our life. HE calls us to a life that is "Unbalanced".We hope that you can be involved in some way during this series. If you have some ideas, please contact Dan.
