Why just 9 you ask? Well honestly, I'm not sure what the 10th most read blog of 2011 is.
So here are 9 most read posts of 2011. They're probably at the top because my mom read them over and over again, thanks mom!
Number 9
This was written while sitting in a hotel in Honduras at the end of leading a trip with high school students. It was an amazing experience but as usual I had a big questions.
Number 8
Our high school pastor Trey Grant does a great job challenging students to empathize with the poor. This a letter from a parent who was involved.
Number 7
My daughter's 16th birthday was this year. This is about / for her.
Number 6
After hearing stories of Godly men committing public sin, I was reminded of my own frailty and potential collision course with scandalous sexual sin.
Number 5
One of the greatest struggles teens have is navigating how they will handle their relationships with the opposite sex. It effects all their relationships; parents, friends and God.
Number 4
How can small group leaders serve their students through the summer? Here's a note our highs school ministry sent to our leaders.
Number 3
This is simply our information sheet on how we do our 2 year internships at IBC.
Number 2
When on vacation I watched most of this TV series. It impacted me at a deep level. There's more to come on this as I've now finished every episode.
Number 1
This was a short email sent to the IBC staff the morning after one of our students, Jha'Kyric Nixon drowned. That night I led a candle night service. 1 week later I had the privilege of officiating the funeral. God did a magnificent work but students are still hurting today.
Wow, what a year. Can I encourage you to take some time and reflect on your year? Maybe sit down with your calendar and look through the year to remember God's blessing. Of course there where hard times, but remembering God's goodness at the end of the year helps launch us into a grace filled new year.
Happy 2012!
