Parents, I know that it’s hard talking to your teenagers about tough issues in life, and intentionally discipling them in the ways of the Lord. As a youth pastor, I’ve heard story after story of rebellious teenagers who are selfish and lack communication and respect. But I’ve also seen some parents who can learn to grow in patience, humility, and conflict. This is why we’re hosting an event called “Come Together”.
"Come Together" is an event for parents and teenagers to come together and talk about important issues in the family. The presentations will cover issues like, social media, family legacy, sex, drugs, reading the Bible, and redeeming relationships with the hope of Jesus.
This event aims to help families talk about growing in a relationship with Jesus together while navigating the tough waters of culture, relationships, and family conflict. It's happening on Saturday, May 4th at Fortress Church from 9am-2pm. Tickets are just $10 which includes your lunch and workbook.
Here are some of the sessions we will be discussing:
1. Jesus' First Words
*Why kids need their parents, why parents need their kids, and family legacy.
2. Alone Together
*How social media, TV, movies, and video games shape us as individuals and as families.
3. Sex, Drugs, College & Jesus
*How pop culture can shape our values, and how its vision contrasts with Jesus’ vision.
4. How To Read The Bible Like The Devil
*All the ways we tend to misread scripture, and how to properly apply it to our lives.
5. Hope For Families
*Where our hope comes from, and how to repair and redeem our relationships.
6. Jesus' Last Words
*The ultimate hope of Christianity, and how that informs the way we live as families.
Also, since this is on May the 4th, it will be Star Wars themed, so bring your Star Wars apparel and take pictures at the Star Wars photo booth!
