Camp Lesson #4; The Flower of Youth

Here is Camp Lesson #4; The flower of youth never appears more beautiful then when it bends toward the Son of Righteousness. This is a quote I heard when I was 17. Later I discovered it was originally from Matthew Henry.

I hope you will never forget the sweet summer evenings, the sound of the chapel bell, the joy of the singing and the things I taught. I hope they ring in your heart for life.

Camp Lesson 1; Listen to God. Talk to God.

A New Project: Every Saturday Morning!

In the summer of 2017 God sent me to speak at camps and conferences and churches in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, New York, Tennessee, and up into Canada. It was a delightful summer. I preached 116 times and during the summer I candidated and was called to the be the Lead Pastor at Bethel Church in Jackson, Michigan.

I promised the campers that I would keep encouraging them all through the year when they went home from camp by creating a series of short videos to remind them of things I taught them from the scriptures at camp. Even if you were not a camper we think these truths will be an encouragement to you… after call, there is a little “camper” in all of us. Here is our first weekly installment.

Camp Lesson Number 1:

If you listen God will speak to you. If you speak to God, He will listen.
