Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Diverting the Youth into joining Church Activities

By Fazzio Sols Estvez


Despite the different beliefs and religions all over the world, most people still get along well with others. Being a member of a church, like the Church of God Lexington KY, where your friends are not does not make you alien. Some Baptist church youth members are worried over thinking that their religion will discriminate them. With the different church activities for youth member, their troubles will be somehow lightened and minds cleared.

These goals are achieved depending on the leaders of the youth ministry. Mostly, the group conducts bible studies, evangelism, fellowships, ministry opportunities, and other youth activities where they work together with their fellow youth members. The parents or guardians also play a vital role in achieving the goals of the youth group. Their support is a must so that all the activities of the youth ministry can be realized. The ministry will also work with the parents or guardians and at the same time support them to nurture, instill, and instruct the necessary Godly character to their children.

During the school year, the youth ministry meets once a week aside from the Church of God Lexington KY Sundays' service. In the summer, the group meets several times a week as that is also the best time to conduct several activities. Show your support to your children by letting them feel your presence. You can attend to any event they are involved with, meet and get to know the parents of their fellow youth members. That way you can also monitor their progress and their social lives.

By motivating your child to consider energetic involvement within the Church of God Lexington KY youth ministry, your son or daughter may meet new people. The various church activities like evangelism, fellowships, as well as ministry possibilities can help them a lot. Your son or daughter is going to be encircled with great individuals who will invariably guide them closest to Jesus, and these individuals will likely be a great influence for them.

Being a teen can be very difficult for your child because this is the time of main adjustments. They frequently go through issues as well as pressure from peers and something of the best ways to keep your child away from the temptations of the modern world is to let them be considered a member of a youth ministry as well as making them feel you're always with them. Joining the church choir or music group may develop their music talents and can likely stray them away from bad habits.
