In our digitally connected world, teenagers are more lonely than ever before. We want to encourage our students to build God-glorifying friendships now in High School!

Did Jesus Really Rise From the Dead? | True North United | Pastor John Fabarez

King Solomon was the ultimate pleasure-seeker and he got everything the world had to offer, but called it all empty and vain in the end. Our students need to believe it, or they will waste their life!

God makes everything under the sun for a season of time, and wise people recognize God’s providence in each season. Our students would be wise to appreciate their current season of life and to use their time to do important things.

We started the book of Ecclesiastes where the preacher tells us that everything in this life is empty and vain without God! While some of us intellectually agree, most high school students really believe and live like the world will satisfy them, but Christians need to stop thinking that way!

We finished the book of Genesis by looking at the faith and prophecies of Jacob and Joseph before they died. We should test our faith and be devoted to grow a deeper trust in God for all the big and small things in our life.

We studied Joseph’s full-fledged forgiveness of his brothers. There are many helpful insights about what Joseph does and does not do that teach us how to forgive. We pray for this sermon to maintain unity through biblical reconciliation when any conflict or bitterness arises!

God taught Joseph to trust him in prison so that he would honor him when in power. Joseph saved Egypt and his brothers instead of taking revenge. Our students should follow Joseph’s example and give up grudges!
