I personally was blessed and I learned the importance of not just being a youth leader but living a life that is holy and pleasing to God. There was different youth groups and they showed different kinds of praising God and it's really not just by singing. They showed drama skits, steppin and dance interpretation. Through that our youth group got exposed to it and everyone was touched by the experience and hopefully in the future we will be able to do the same thing. The whole experience just proved to us that praising God doesn't have to be boring.

It was a really good experience for me. I learned a lot from it because before I was a bad example to my family, and since I came to Christ it really affected my life.

Last nights experience was very touching, i was really affected by the message that elderly scott made. It made me realize that i have a responsibilty to my peers and my family. I have to be an example beacause i represent the ONLY perfect person that ever walked in this earth. My Lord, my King, my BEST friend, Jesus Christ.

Ok last night LBTB youth went to Youth Explosion 2007 in Dublin. It was great because we were a group going to a event filled with other Christians. None of us were nervous or anything I felt like we were all comfortable even tho we were meeting these strangers for the first time! After we were seated the host of the event had a very nice praise and worship, skit, and message to us teenagers. It was kinda different then what I've seen and im used to, but in a good way. Everyone was VERY energetic and praised the lord with everything they had. Then later in the service Elder scotty asked for the youth to come down and stand next to each other if they wanted to be closer to God. So everyone went up and lined up shoulder to shoulder. Then people from the church came to us and took some of us as groups and prayed for us which was pretty awesome because i felt relieved after they had prayed for us. Many tears were shed, lots and lots of smiles across everyones faces because we all felt like God was there with us. After the powerful gathering they had a nice entertainment for us. The church had food, music, a game where everyone can play and dance called dance praise revolution. We also met alot of other christians from all over the bay and everyone was very friendly to each other. I think the best thing was no matter what we looked like or how we acted we were all comftable with each other because we came there for one thing and it was for God. So my experience there was awesome, the fellowship, the praising and all the fun i had. It made me feel like i was one step closer to God.

Yesterday was fun!! I like the Godkinz =] they're kool, but there was something even cooler. The message pastor Scotty gave us about how to set an example to others. When he asked the youth to come down I was thinking bout it first then i knew I had to do it for GOD. So when the adults was praying for the youth you think that they were the only ones praying for the kids. But i knoew some people who were sitting down was reaching their hands to us and started praying. Also adults were not the only ones praying for the youth, the youth was praying for each other i know. Like me i was praying for myself, Theo, Kuya James bcuz they were beside me. But then I started to pray for the whole youth who came down. I have felt God touch many times in my life. I remember when Pastor Scotty said you will be different when you leave this building? I knew i was going to be right when I stepped out of the door. Now i know my life its gonna be different. And I realize when Pastor Scotty said "doesnt god deserve Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday not only Sunday" After he said that i started praying. Everyday from now on im going to pray more than I usually do and listen to praise and worship. And now i know im going to be closer to God. - Jared Barinna
Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. - I Timothy 4:12
