My desire is to follow Christ’s purpose for my life by making a Kingdom impact on teens as they begin to truly “own” their personal relationship with Christ and maximize the gifts He has given each one. This passionate call was ignited in me many years ago through the sharpening words of Romans 12:1-2, “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God — this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
