Toronto Update
Submitted by Center for Stud... on Thu, 08/07/2008 - 15:41.
From the moment these 34 individuals stepped outside their vehicles with hearts and bags full, they had no idea what this week would hold.
The first group to arrive was from Michigan, who had already come last year! As their 34 legs stepped out of the vans, you could see the twinkle in their eyes as they braced themselves for "another" week here in Toronto. They were so remarkably impacted by the people they served, the stories they heard, and the things they saw, so much that they took this programming back home to serve those in their own communities.
Trying to be the next superstar?
Submitted by GabriellaMartay on Wed, 08/06/2008 - 21:27.I have a question for you: Who do you worship? Sounds like a joke, right? You're probably thinking something like, "This girl is trippin'. I'm on a Christian website- who else but God would I be worshiping?" Well, many people say this, but do they REALLY feel this way?
Is your biggest desire to glorify God?.. or do you thirst to glorify yourself more than him? Do you crave to be famous more than you crave to hang out with our Savior? Do you seek after that girl/dude down the block more than you do our God? Take a step back and really examine where you stand with our Father. I pray that He's number one in your life. If he isn't- PLEASE MAKE A CHANGE MY SYBLING. Jesus says that we should not be striving to achieve status on this earth, but striving to achieve status in Heaven. I'm sure you want to know how we can do this. So let's cut to the chase and get to it- I'm not going to "sugar-coat" this and say that it's easy, because it's not- but we must humble ourselves like small children to be among the greatest in heaven. (Matthew 18) Now, don't get this twisted. Humbling yourself before God does not mean looking as if you have no money and as if you have no confidence, it means that you TOTALLY obey God and listen to what he has to say (Just like a small child obeys and listens to his parents). We have got to trust in the fact that God is in control of our lives and knows what is best for us.
Are we ready to do this? If so, we can start by getting to know God and what he says in His word. Trust me, we won't regret it.
Take a look at this music video of a Christian rapper named Trip Lee. It hits home when it comes to our society today and where we as Christians stand. It's time to stop worshiping things that are going to perish and invest in a God who is ETERNAL!!! PRAISE HIM!

Serving the Good King
Submitted by Center for Stud... on Tue, 08/05/2008 - 11:18.
I recently pulled my copy of CS Lewis' The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe off the shelf and read back over some of my favorite passages. There's one conversation in particular that I'm continually drawn back to:
"Is-is he a man?" asked Lucy.
"Aslan a man!" said Mr Beaver sternly. "Certainly not. I tell you he is the King of the wood and the son of the great Emperor-beyond-the-Sea. Don't you know who is the King of Beasts? Aslan is a lion - the Lion, the great Lion."

Authentic Compassion
Submitted by Center for Stud... on Tue, 07/01/2008 - 12:29.
I am reading a book that a former staff member blessed me with called: Here and Now by Henri Nouwen. An excerpt out of the book is called "From Competition to Compassion".
"Compassion - which means, literally, 'to suffer with' - is the way to the truth that we are ourselves, not when we differ from others, but when we are the same."
....
"It is not "excelling" but "serving" that makes us most human. It is not proving ourselves to be better than others but confessing to be just like others that is the way to healing and reconciliation."
DC Reflection: Some Great Kids
Submitted by Center for Stud... on Wed, 07/30/2008 - 11:25.I got to spend the past week with some great kids from Crosspointe Church in Washington D.C. working with the Center for Student Missions organization. Our high school kids took a short term mission trip to our nation’s capital to serve the poor and homeless for a week.
The majority of these kids had never served in this manner before and it was, to say the least, an eye opening experience for them. I would even say that it removed them from their comfort zone of Apex and Cary.
