Day 5: Purpose\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0What would TeenStreet be without the Service team? 652 people are working behind the scenes this year and making TeenStreet possible – in the kitchen, cleaning toilets, as security, at a fun food stand and so on. This morning we thanked them out loud! Service team, we love you!\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0Just like the Olympic flame, it is also important for us as Christians to pass on the torch and bring the light of Jesus into the world. Because there are still a good 3 billion people who have little or no opportunity to hear about Jesus. \u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0We know from Paul that he did not rest even at the end of his ministry, but continued to preach the gospel until the next generation took up the torch. Just before Jesus went back to his heavenly Father, he told his disciples that they would be his witnesses – his evidence, proof (Acts 1:8). With the DUNAMIS power of the Holy Spirit, our lives will also change and we will be evidence, proof of his love and bring his light into the world. His DUMANIS power will protect us.\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0In the afternoon, many teens went out into the city and brought His light to the people of Offenburg – playing football, at prayer stands or by talking to passers-by. The teens came back with shining eyes and full of enthusiasm about what they had experienced. \u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0At Throne Room we were reminded that as Christians we have to choose God EVERY day. Then we started a time of worship, where we also used the little torches that everyone received at the entrance waving them around praising God. When we sang the song “Battle belongs”, we all got down on our knees and sung: “So when I fight, I fight on my knees with my hands lifted high. Oh, God, the battle belongs to you.” Later, we got down on our knees again – this time to confess our sins to God – and sang “Christ and Christ crucified”. What an evening!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
