Thanks to all who sent blessings and prayer regarding our last
email about our church bus burning down. God was present!

01 :: 22 in the Books
==========================

The first 21 days of 2008 are in the annals of history.

James 4:14 says that our life is like mist. It appears for a short
while and then vanishes.

We ALL live that verse each day.

So here's a word of encouragement...

Intention.

Each day our life, work, words, etc. should be intentional. Not an
accidental or "blind shot" approach to life. Instead, we live in
light of the fact that our lives are short. We live with the focus
of serving the Lord whether working or playing.

Let work as to the Lord and not for men as we serve God's sons and
daughters!

Blessings,
Paul and Al

The Zone from Teen Life Ministries now has over 1000 articles to
help you with youth ministry.

Yes, we know that's more than anyone is expected to get through.
But there's a lot of variety so you can be choosey.

You have permission to use these in your ministry. If you see an
article for parents that would help your families then just copy
and send it by email. Or print it and put it in the mail.

Email the daily Bible readings to your group each month.

Print out the monthly "Dawn Til' Dusk" and take yourself on a one
day retreat. OR rework it a bit and hand it out to your teens.

These articles aren't just for reading they are for USING within
your ministry.

Even though the day to remember the life of Martin Luther King, Jr.
was yesterday, anytime is a good time to reflect on his work.
We've put together a brief devotional and a link to his
famous 1963 speech.

Not in The Zone? Take the $1 test-drive!! There's no risk. This is
NOT like driving around with the 16 year old who just got his
license.
