Hebrews 13: 1-2 Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters. 2 Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.
 
Are you a hospitable person?  Do you show kindness and hospitality to those you meet and come in contact with?  These questions and many like them should stay on the hearts and minds of not only our teenagers, but to every Christian of any age. Having proper manners and showing a hospitable attitude is one major component most Christians fail to see themselves fulfilling. The fact is, hospitality is something that should come to each of us naturally. People do not realize how much of an impact or testimony they leave with someone when they show a friendly smile and good manners. This type of attitude is expected of Christians not just when they are having a good day, but any day. This can be practiced by simply holding a door open for someone, saying yes mam or sir, asking a question and stating please at the end of your request, or even allowing someone to go ahead of you when they seem to be in a rush. Try practicing hospitality to someone this week and see how it impacts those you do it for and others around you who notice your Christian behavior.

We have had a great time this summer watching some great Christian movies. I want to encourage our church family to see what is now available for good Christian entertainment. Here are a few we have watched over the past couple of months. Ring The Bell, Fern Hill, Seasons of Gray, and a documentary story of Josh McDowell entitled Undaunted. I highly recommend all of these. 

This week we have another movie in store for our youth called Home Run. A movie about a baseball player who in addicted to alcohol and it begins to take its toll on his life and career. After spending some time on suspension, he comes to terms with his problems while finding out some in depth details about his past that will change his life.  Movie time will be from 6:30-8:30 in the amphitheater.

How are you spending your time? What have you been doing in order to stay busy? When you get bored, are you occupying your time well, or are you getting into mischief. There’s a fact that when young teenagers get bored their minds tend to wander into the unknown which usually leads them into trouble. A teenager who uses the internet when they are bored usually checks more inappropriate websites than one who is using it with more purpose and meaning. The same applies when someone is surfing the TV for something to watch. The truth is teenagers are more prone to stay out of trouble when they use their free time wisely such as hanging out with a peer group of Christian friends doing Christian things: Bible study, volunteer work, helping others out, and even group prayer. Sharing accountability with other Christians helps them to stay loyal and faithful to God and less out to fall into temptation where their lives can be changed forever by making a poor decision. So, what are you doing this summer? Hopefully it is something that will not bring shame to your character or to God’s good name.

Movie Night this week as we will watch a modern day story of Joseph in the movie “Seasons of Gray”. We will meet from 6:30-8:30pm this week.
