This past Wednesday we started our new series, "The Next Generation." This series focuses on the next generation finding their identity in Christ. What will define the next generation? Hopefully, Jesus Christ. The first sermon was titled, "The Past Generation of the Next Generation," which focused on how our parents play a pivotal role in our spiritual lives. As parents, your behaviors and actions are not only seen by your children, but can be passed down to them. So what kind of legacy are you leaving in your kids? Is your family one that puts God first, or do other things take priority? Are you disciplined in your devotions? Do you pray? When is the last time you checked in with your kids on their walk with God? The challenge I gave the students was to continue in the good traits that their parents possess and choose to be different in the bad ones. We should not be defined by who our parents are, but should 100% be molded and defined by who Christ is and who we are in Christ.
