Teens in worship….what a beautiful sight. It is especially wonderful when your kids are there, they are worshipping, and they are there because they WANT to be - to worship the Lord because they love Him.

We went to a Youth Conference last night, and it was amazing!
Joyce Meyer was there and spoke to everyone…not only the teens.
My teens and 21 year old,(all 5 of them), thought it was the best night yet…and my 13 year old daughter, Rachel, was surprised she liked Joyce Meyer so much. I think she didn’t expect to get much out of her, because I listen to her almost every day on TV. She had an opinion of her as being for “older people” to listen to.
Dan and I sat in the back of the Auditorium with our younger boys, and had a great view of the whole place. The worship music was very good, and had the ability to draw people in.
The most exciting thing to me was to spot my kids, with their hands raised in worship….
That is until the alter call.
There must have been a couple of hundred people respond to the call for salvation through acceptance of Christ.
What a wonderful night.
Tonight the speaker will be Ed Young. My husband will be going, and I am looking forward to hearing how it goes.
Teens in worship- a beginning of new leaders in the body of Christ.
