Defining Moments
Over the last few weeks, and this week especially, we over here in my corner of the world have been getting ready for our church youth group's summer camp. This particular event is something that, even at nearly 30 and now as a leader rather than just a camper, I still look forward to every year, because it is always so life-changing for all parties involved. I love every facet of it, from the planning to the execution, seeing the kids all arrive at the church, either full of plans or scared out of their mind at just what exactly is going to happen, and most importantly, I love seeing the way God grabs ahold of every open and willing heart up there, young and old, and moves in all of them in a very big and defining way. In fact, I love it so much, I actually wrote my first book to be in the setting of a camp very similar to one I went to when I was in youth group myself. This post is kind of going to be a double-plug. I want to tell you about the book I'm always referring to
