oh the delay

sometimes i think 'if the only performance indicator for my job was this blog, i'd be fired.'
sorry.

the highlight of the last few weeks has honestly been all the times we've spent with adults. youth staffs (is that a word?), parents, pastors, adults who really care ... we've had a number of opportunities to lead discussions about discipleship with adults.

it's.been.great.

we often say that you can get youth excited about anything. i'll be honest, i've been a little cynical about the 'older' generation. i've wanted them to step up, to recognize the need for discipleship, and to make things happen. i just wasn't sure if that would happen.

and i'm here to say: my mind is changing. i'm super excited about the conversations we've had. adults all over the place are echoing our very thoughts on discipleship, are asking good questions about discipleship, are wanting to understand it better so that they can disciple despite the fact that many of them have never been discipled.

maybe this is old news to you.
maybe now you think i'm just 'one of those young people with a baditude about the old generation'.

i'm totally sincere -- i am so refreshed and so encouraged. 
i believe God has something AMAZING in store. 

are you ready?
