The Beginning of Breakthrough

Students responding to God's call to give him their future

Just last Thursday we hit a transformational moment with the 85 LAUP participants.

As students spent the week studying Scripture and hearing teaching about money, something broke open inside their hearts.  As students approached the front of the room to symbolically offer their treasures to God, the concept of God’s love for the poor somehow went from a cerebral idea to a heartfelt challenge to which they needed to personally respond.  They began to seek the link between the poor families they are working each day and their own choices of career, lifestyle, and finances in the future.  Students gave God control of their dreams and plans in very specific ways.

I’ve never seen students this engaged with the challenge to live as good news to the poor this early in the summer...I can hardly wait to see how much God will do by the end!

Please pray with us that God will keep moving deeply in students' hearts:  that each and every student will wrestle with God's personal challenge to them to live as good news to the poor, and that they will sweetly, intimately, and specifically hear God's invitation closer to himself.
