I woke up a few minutes ago. My alarm didn't go off like it should have meaning I didn't grab a shower, which is why I'm not attending church this evening. I knew I should have showered as soon as I walked in the door, I could have still gone even though I would have been half an hour late. Now I'd be an hour late and that'd just be pointless.

So... what's your favorite number like I don't know

[natedawg5280]

I'll bet it's 666.

[mtlmouth]

[natedawg5280]

No, Sarah's definately not a '4' person. But I better get out of here.. after all.. this is Sarah's blog..

jess, if this wasnt a christian forum.........

so yeah. 3 is my fave number. then 5. 3 and 5. dont forget it.


last night was....interesting i guess. i'm frusterated with some of what our youth leader, adam, was saying. he just took over the teen group at our request, and the majority of the teens are younger. like 13/14ish. so there's still alot of immaturity and goofin off goin on.
last night adam spoke for an hour. with the exception of some interruptions by us teens, we pretty much listened to him the whole time. after an hour it seemed like he was done, so everyone kinda started discussing things....still what we had been talking about, but not as serious.
i was talking too. then i looked over and saw adam was pissed, so i stopped. no one else did though. adam blew up and started goin on about how we can't even give him 10 minutes without cuttin up and how we don't respect him at all, and he said how he's ready to drop this group in a heartbeat if we don't show him some respect and stuff....which hasnt been the first time he's said that.
what's frusterating about it is that....ok, i respect adam. he's alot like me. everyone calls me his twin because we're so much...alike. yeah. anywho, i lose some respect for him everytime he brings up this dropping the youth group. we're a new freakin group, of course we're not gonna be perfect. its gonna take work. but when we don't even have the security of knowing he's gonna stick with us through the hard times and make it work.....how much respect can we really give him? i don't think he should tell us that if we're not perfect he's gonna ditch us.
i can see his side though because our personalities are alot alike. he's frusterated....we arent giving him the respect he needs to be our leader. we're definitely in the wrong there as a group. i think both us and adam need to work on our problems. i just don't know how to approach adam with it without seeming disrespectful or anything. i love him to death and think its awesome that he took on the responsibility of leading this group, but i think he's so wrapped up in....what i'm not quite sure....that he's losing sight of the basics. if that makes sense.
*sigh* its a learning experience. i'm just praying about it and waiting for God to let me know what to do. i've already talked to misty about it a little bit (misty is his wife and my friend), but not in much detail.


so thats that. kinda long, sorry. tomorrow's work again....i love my job. weird huh?

whats up with everyone?

[Cinster]

I can see Adam's frustration, but it's a lot easier to see how he's trying to make it about him almost. Maybe I got that out of no where, but for a while I thought he was making it into his whole thing.

This is the first time he's done this, this is the first time I'm sure a lot of the kids in the group have experienced a youth group so it is going to take a lot of time and effort on both parts. With the 13 and 14 year olds comes a lot of immaturity and that's just going to have to be something that is controlled. It's hard and difficult at first, but once it catches on, it'll get a lot better.

I've not been going to church on Wednesday's mostly because I don't feel like I'm growing in that group, and I can see in my own life that I'm not. Sunday morning's are a different story, but unfortunately most Sunday's I'm so exhausted from the previous week and driving home from Gustin's I'm too spent to go. I hate to use that as an excuse because there should be none, but it's true.

I want to get back into the youth, I want to try and find a way to help not as a teen, but not as a leader and I really just don't see that happening right now which is sad to me, but God has His plan and I'm going to lean on it.

I say Adam definitely needs to be approached. It won't be easy, especially if he gets defensive like I know he will. He just has to know you're coming out of love and that you aren't trying to disrepect him. If after all you've said was out of love and not disrespectful and he still takes it badly, then it's something within his own heart and nothing you did. As his sister in Christ, you should approach him, you're commanded to. I'm praying about it. I'll be hanging with you tomorrow. Loves.

Wow, that's cool that you can have a 'twin' youth dude, but that's not right at all.. for him to threaten dropping you guys in a heartbeat. A mature environment takes a while to build.

I'm sorry, big sis'.
I'll pray for ya'.
