What did Jesus believe about his disciples? Look at the tasks He gave them. Look at what He trusted them with. Look at how He spoke to them. Look at  the authority He gave them. Jesus did what he believed, even when it led to betrayal, hurt, and frustration.

What do you believe about teenagers?

  • If you believe teenagers are lazy you’ll feel like you have to do all the work for them

What we believe about teenagers is how we’ll do youth ministry.
