As I write this, our family is preparing to head to Sydney to attend the Hillsong Conference for the first time ever. As Matt and I attend the adult conference, our kids will attend the Young and Free Conference for Youth. It is costing us a pretty penny, but we see it as an investment into their futures. It will expose them to a culturally relevant and Godly experience that will enrich their lives. We know that for sure, because we know God will be in the house!
But even better than this one off experience they we can give them, is their weekly experience at Youth Group on a Friday night. Getting our kids to and from Youth each Friday night and teaching them to prioritise Jesus in this way regardless of whether their friends were going, or there weren't enough games, or they just didn't feel like it is paying off. Plus... we get a date night! But don't just take my word for it. This article written by a Youth Pastor for his church family outlines so many great reasons to make Youth Group a priority for your kids. Check it out!
