Does God listen when you pray? |
"Do not be anxious about anything, But everything,By prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus"
Witinessing isn't:
Philippians 4:6-7
grabbing a friend's shirt and yelling, "You're going to hell!"
Trying to get someone to go to church with you.
Letting kids with bad reputations know you think they're scum.
Carring a great big Bible on top of your school books.
So... How do you lead your friends to Christ?
By being real. By taking a honest intrest in others. By being friendly. By stating what you believe without attacking others or putting them down.
What do you say? |
"Do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say, for it will not be you speaking, but the spirit of your Father speaking through you."
How can you build a positive self-image? Remember God made you the way your are. And God doesn't make junk. Don't spend time concentrating on what you think are your bad points. Work on the good ones. Build on your strengths, and stop focusing on your weaknesses. Most important --make good decisions. Stick to what you know is right, and you'll have a great reason to feel good about yourself.

Matthew 10:19-20
Still worried about your looks?......
Remember, they're temporary. They'll change.
"So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, But what is unseen is eternal."
2 Corinthians 4:18
Love is willing to wait:
Love doesn't brag about
Love doesn't lose its temper
Love keeps on trusting God
So whats it mean to be a Christian teen? How are you different from other teens? Do you look different? Do you dress different? It's OK to look and act like a teenager. Still, Peter expects you to be different: "Now you are the people of God" (1 Peter 2:10).You belong to God. Being "different" means making sure that everything you do reflects in a postive manner on God. Be a teen. And be a kind, thoughtful and honest person. Be a teen. And act toward your friends of both sexes with integrity. Be a teen. Be God's teen, the very best person you can be.

Is all sex considered a sin?
Why should you wait?
God's design for sex is very specific:
One man with one woman within the legal bonds of marriage. How special do you want sex to be with the person you marry? How much do you want to be "one" with him or her-instead of five or eighteen or thiry-three? It's easy to say "I love you." But only " I do" says you're really one, for always.
"This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh;...For this reason a man will leave his Father and Mother and be united to his wife, and they will become flesh"
Genesis 2:23-24
