YL Capernaum Everywhere

During club recently, Katey and her friends were talking about sin and the cross during their club talk. They created this great visual that ended up being so helpful for their friends to understand how sin effects us and how the cross offers us such a beautiful way to live instead! They had 5 boxes- one large box named “SIN”, one large box named “GOD”, one medium box named “ME”, one tiny box named “SIN” and one tiny box named “GOD”. They explained how God created us to live in perfect relationship with Him where we live in Him (put the “ME” box in the large “GOD” box) and where He lives in us (put the tiny “GOD” box in the medium “ME” box). Then, take everything out. They then explained how because of sin (with explanation of sin) it looks like this: put the tiny “SIN” box in the “ME” box and then put the “ME” box in the large “SIN” box. They explained how there is nothing that we can do on our own to get sin out of us and there is nothing we can do on our own to get ourselves out

On a day to day basis, you will find Young Life leaders at schools, inviting a kid to be a part of something with them. The reason behind that invitation: they have vision for that kid and that kid’s life. Whether that’s for community, for growth, for leadership or for adventure, it’s all encapsulated in experiencing life to the full with Jesus. Often, we all need an invitation that’s held up by a vision. Please enjoy this video . I promise you; it will be some of the best six minutes of your day! It’s invitation, it’s vision and it’s legacy! It’s also counter-cultural, big, exciting and exactly where we are going as a mission! Leaders inviting their friends to be leaders; to be disciple makers who love Jesus fiercely and doing that within community. Greenville, SC is modeling this for us, and while they are busy inviting their friends into great spaces, I think they’re inviting many of us to do something similar. Thank you for being a part of the community that is inviting

Maggie and Abby served in the laundry room together at SharpTop Cove this summer!  Maggie & Abby learned so much during their month and their words in this video are an incredible reminder to all of us! Maggie says, “Jesus is telling me not to give up on my dreams”!  Capernaum is dreaming big alongside of our friends and we’re soaring to new places… places that are changing all of us and allowing all of us to experience Jesus more fully!
