It's a weekly, one-hour bible study and fellowship group for Middle School and High School aged kids.
Jackson attended his first meeting last night. When I asked him about what they did, he excitedly talked about fuseball, a game with oreo cookies, how he "owned" with a back-handed pool shot, some sort of tag game with a ball...
Me: "Was there a lesson? Any Jesus talk?"
J: "Oh yeah," he says. "Something about a guy who got beat up and is laying in a ditch and a priest passes him by but some guy, like a Jewish guy, picked him up and took care of him."
Me: "Huh. And what was the lesson in that story?"
J: "Ummm, I can't really remember."
(deep sigh) I'm sure the Jesus stuff will soak in after a time... let us pray on that one.
The classes are run by (what appear to be) high-school aged kids, so the children think they are cool. It's a fun way to get some positive mojo going... so, in case you are interested, here's the scoop:
