You know I totally miss the Christian youth group I went to as a young kid and then a teen. What a blast it was.
Get in have some social time, then we would always play a game, then we would have worship, singing songs from our hymnal that we picked up the beat added an electric guitar and a keyboard and we rocked out, those are the times I remember feeling most spiritual, it was the music, it was the dancing and it was being in a room of my own kind, totally comfortable to let myself relate the music, and just have fun. Then we would go and have snack, snack and some more social time, catch up and build friendships after that study time, we would have have the most awesome discussions ask questions and have adult mentors, then we would head home, sad to leave and yet so excited for that next Wednesday.
Have you seen the new collection of Stan Toler books from Logos Bible Software? I thought you might be interested:

Lyndi, did we go to the same Christian youth group? :-) I also miss that passionate energy. Someday.
Kent, thanks for the book recommendations. I just ordered them!
