We had another great Sunday in youth ministry at FCC. Big thanks goes out to all of you for getting your students up early enough to make it to youth service. God has been doing some amazing work and we are so proud of the spiritual growth that has taken place in some of the students.
High School
We covered the topic of spiritual pruning. Why does God "prune" us? What does that look like in our lives? Are we allowing this process to take place or are we reluctant because this might go against what we would desire for our lives? God is going to prune us, why? Because he desires us to produce good fruit. Simply put, we have a lot of things in our life that take up a lot of our efforts but produce nothing for the Kingdom of God, God wants to prune us back so that we can use our God given gifts to produce eternal fruits.

Junior High
Our focus: God is into character building. God is so big, sometimes we don't understand him. We look at the things that he does in our lives and wonder why. In this message we see some of God's character revealed to us through His grace. We see that God desires that we be filled with the joy and hope that can only be found in Him. God is going to stretch us, there will be suffering in this life. However, we find our joy and peace in the knowledge that all things are meant for Godly character development. When a situation comes up, where do you place your trust? God or yourself?
Key Passage
- Romans 5: 1-11
