This past weekend I had the priviledge of speaking to my home church youth group at their Senior High Winter Retreat. It has held at the church in which I am currently serving. The title of the weekend was "irace" and was centered on Hebrews 12:1. The 3-part series conducted on Friday night through Sunday morning consisted of the following:

n Remembering our Heroes (Heb. 12:1a)
n Fighting our Unbelief (Heb. 12:1b)
n Contemplating our Christ (Heb. 12:2)

I thank the Lord for an amazing opportunity to speak to my former youth group. My prayer is that each of these kids finish the race that they have begun.
