New Life Peoria Youth Camp, October 10-12 – Psalm 1: The Mountaintop Experience

I had the privilege of speaking at a youth retreat for New Life Community Church Peoria (AZ).

Below are the videos of the four teaching sessions, including Session 3 led by my friend and their youth pastor Noah, and a sample booklet to go alongside the lessons. (We did not use a booklet on this trip, but it did help guide the discussions overall.)

The theme was “Psalm 1: The Mountaintop Experience,” looking at how to live a blessed life of growing in the presence of God rather than focusing on experiences.

May you enjoy and be blessed.

Psalm 1: The Mountaintop Experience

Session 1: Who do you listen to?

Session 2: The Mountaintop Experience: Obedience to whom?

Session 3: Where do I stand?

Session 4: Coming down from the mountain

Counting On (Daylight Savings) Time

Alrighty, everyone!

If you are not in Hawaii or Arizona (where I am!) – or a few small pockets – then you are waking up to Daylight Savings Time adjusting your clocks back an hour!

Now, if you are grumbling about being an hour early for church, here is some advice:

Do all things without grumbling or disputing …
Philippians 2:14 (ESV)

If there is any silver lining to DST beginning and ending every 6 months-ish, it is that it serves as a reminder to live out another biblical teaching:

So teach us to number our days
    that we may get a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12 (ESV)

Happy Sunday!

Go worship God in word, deed, and thought!
