simple childlike faith

I believe I am going to start doing a weekly blog about this group I attend on Mondays called "I Am Second".

Each week we gather at "The Villa", and we sit around and watch a video about someone's life and how they came to Christ. We read a piece of scripture that pertains to that video, and talk about our personal experiences with that scripture/video or what we liked about it. Sometimes we may talk about what confused us and get a deeper meaning than what is written. Afterwards we then make an attainable commitment to do that week. It could be anything from sharing the video with someone that you know to even making a deeper connection with Christ. 

This week my commitment was to start sharing this group and our discussions with the blogger world each week and to be nicer to my roommate by leaving her a small little sticky note everyday on her side of the room.

So this week we watched a video from Bailee Madison. She starred in Bridge to Terabithia and some other movies. She is at least 12 and she has such a passion for Christ. She is so lively and lightens up the room, which we all believe is amazing because that is what God wants us to do in life.

The scripture for this week was from Mark 10:13-16.

"And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, 'Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.' And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them."

I suggest watching this.

I am very excited to share with you guys the discussions from our group each week. 

Have a great rest of the week!
