Re: Revival in Middle School

You never know how God is dealing with people, even kids.

My first encounter with God happened in kindergarten.
I missed the bus and my Mom was yelling at me, cause she needed me to be in Kindergarten so she could go to her job.
she threw me in the car and said, "now tell me how to get to your school."
I had no idea and was scared so I prayed and asked God to show me.
and then I just started saying whatever came to my mind for directions and we ended up at my school.

I know for a fact it was God who helped me.

That first experience showed me that God was real and enabled me to respond to him when I heard the gospel.

Maybe it will be the first step towards toward salvation.

Re: Revival in Middle School

DFT is asking how the "giving your life to the Lord" is signified, hence the ability to get a head count.

Is it speaking in tongues, running, shockamoo or raising yer right hand and wiggling a pinky???

Exactly.

It has turned out to be far more difficult than I would have expected.

Duh.....repentance; turning from their old way to the way of the Lord. I have no idea if he had them raise their hands or come to the front or what. I wasn't there. But at least it's a start. Who knows where God will lead these kids? They said the power of God was really strong in the place.

It was voluntary and put on by Fellowship of Christian Athletes, so it's totally kosher, I guess. The principal ok'd it.
