AIMing For Him

So AIM is going great as usual. This term of classes seems a lot easier then the last term but I think it is just me getting use to the way things work here in AIM and even though it seems easy I am defintetly still growing and learning a lot. Speaking of the way things work, we were discussing today in class about how in Acts the Apostles and Paul spoke the Gospel and continued with the same message throughout their lives but how they presented the message changed. In the beginning of Acts they used a lot of references to Jewish History and prophecy and towards the end the used a more "gentile" way of presenting the Gospel through examples like Paul speaking about the idol that said TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. So taking that example for today's generation, we as Christians need to present the Gospel in a way that attracts the interest of people of this generation. That's why I think it is awesome that at Metro with the Youth Group They do Highway on Wednesday nights because I know, at least in my case, that people I brought from school loved Highway just because it was time to hang out, mess around and not have to worry about schoolwork or the stress of life. Then the singing was awesome and the lesson appealed to them also. I mean even if they weren’t a Christian my friends would say that they got something out of the lesson just to be a better person or even think about Spiritual things and that is awesome. So to the Metro Youth Group that read this please, for the lost sake, keep Highway and other events that help reach out together and keep them edifying because although you may not see the impact that it is making there is definitely an impact there and even though your friends may come just to hang out or to play Halo or whatever but just as Travis has said a couple of times, "You may come to hang out, play video games, or even for the ladies but I want you to come away knowing God better," or something to that extent. That is what is most important and that is what I am learning day in and day out in AIM that people are most important and doing whatever you can, besides changing the Gospel itself, to bring the Message to the lost. Well thank you all again for helping me through support and prayers and love to learn and do all that I am in AIM, I will hopefully be sending out a newsletter soon to have as a way of just presenting all that I have written on this blog in a publication.

In Christ,
