Our Second Youth Activity Night in April

This past Saturday the teens gathered for the second activity night of the month.

The evening consisted of several indoor games including dodgeball, kickball, and balloon relays.








































The game time was followed by a challenge from God's word. Pastor Ryan challenged the teens to know the gospel and to see how it applies to all of life. There isn’t a day that doesn’t go by that we don’t need to be reminded of the truth of the gospel, that God loves us and sent his Son to die for us and that our only hope is the gospel. We looked especially at 2 Corinthians 4:4-6 where the apostle Paul writes,

"In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ."

Paul is telling us that the gospel is all about seeing God’s magnificent glory in Christ. God's glory is demonstrated most powerfully, most radiantly in Christ -- In who he was, in what he did, in his perfections, in his perfect love, in his compassionate weeping for sinners, in his quiet suffering for our wretched sin, in his ultimate triumph over sin and at the empty grave, in his gracious intercession for us now, and in his glorious triumphant return to reign as king! If we want to see God’s glory, we need to look to the gospel of Christ, for in the glorious gospel of Christ we see God’s glory most radiantly. Meditate on the gospel, study the New Testament and see how often the gospel is brought up. Love the gospel.

Following the devotional the teens enjoyed some time for eating and fellowship.

Youth Activity Night

Last night the youth group got together for the first youth activity night of the month. We had a great time of playing games, fellowship, and eating some great food provided by the Sanchez family, followed by a challenge from the Word of God by Pastor Hess.

The night began with a fast paced game of "Hocker" -- a unique blend of hockey, soccer, and basketball.













Hocker was followed by capture the flag and some indoor relay challenges. After the game time the teens gathered together to sing some songs and hear a challenge by Pastor Hess from the Bible. Pastor taught us from Ephesians 5:19 about the importance of talking to ourselves.




Then came the refreshments, fellowship, and some more games.

Welcome!

Welcome to the Community Bible Church Youth Ministries Webpage!

Here we will share pictures from activities, notices for upcoming events, and other notes for the teenagers from Pastor Ryan. I hope this will be a great blessing for the teens and their families.

Be sure to come out to the Wednesday night prayer meetings. Pastor Ryan is beginning a new study: "How can I be sure of my salvation?"

There are two youth activity nights this month - April 4th and 12th. Come out for a great time of games, food, fellowship, and a challenge from God's word.
