COMING APRIL 17TH...

The Nerf Battle is Co-Ed.  Invite all your friends!
(6th Grade- 12th Grade)
GUYS... AFTER THE NERF BATTLE, PLAN ON STAYING FOR A LOCK-IN!!!
(Sorry girls... you have to go home.  Nerf battle ends at 8:00.)

Here's our Discussion Questions from Wednesday night 4/15/26
Just for Fun…
  • Do you believe Alian life exists somewhere out there?
  • Would you rather have a pet dragon or a pet unicorn?
Thinking Deeper…
  • Read John 20:21 together.
  • When Jesus says, “As the Father has sent me, I am sending you,” what do you think that means? What does this verse teach us about how we are supposed to live?
  • Read John 21:15-19 together.
  • Jesus tells Peter “Follow me” after giving him a mission. Why do you think following Jesus personally has to come before leading or helping others?
  • “Feed my sheep” wasn’t about literal food. What do you think it means to spiritually care for others your age? What are some real-life ways you could “feed Jesus’ sheep” in your school, friend group, or youth group?
  • Being sent like Jesus often includes rejection, sacrifice, or discomfort. What challenges do you think you might face if you took this calling seriously?
  • Pray for one another.

It has been such a joy beginning the process of getting to know your students here at Creekside and I am humbled to be entrusted with the task of pointing them towards Jesus.  I realize when a church hires a new youth pastor, there is a natural tendency to think that they are here to work with the teens.  Whereas that is certainly a part of my role, mom’s & dad’s, I want you to know that I’m also here for YOU!  Parenting is no easy task, and as parents you will absolutely be the number one influence on your children and upon their spiritual formation!  As you seek to point your kids towards Jesus, please know that you aren’t in this alone!  If there is anything at all that I can do to support you as you shepherd your children, my door is always open!
