Junior High Stuck on the Moon.

Greetings all, we had a great night at junior high last night. We continued our series on dating and looking at God's design for our relationships. We started things off with a NASA exercise. What items would you salvage from your crashed spaceship on the moon? Both our teams did fairly well, a couple of our students have an inordinate amount  of information about the Moon.

The point of it all was to show some of the benefits of being in community. I also had an "age" moment when I asked who had seen the movie "Castaway" and got maybe 1 hand. (Seriously, its only like 10 years old). Anyway, where was I?

Right, God's design for Junior Highs in the dating world. Last week we looked at one of God's designs (honour your parents). This week we  went to Luke Chapter 10 to look at the story of The Good Samaritan. In all of our relationshps we need to love the other person as we love ourselves. We talked about how we need to make sure we are living all of our relationships in this light. Prior to dating we should make sure we have our other relationships up to this standard (i.e. younger brother, etc). When we live our relationships this way we live them in a Godly fashion. This enables us to be Godly in our dating.

Next week is Minute To Win It Night. This should be fun. Also check out the post on 30 Hour Famine.
