Are central to youth work
We believe that central to all youth work are the relationships you create. We don’t try to justify the relationships we make? We don’t think you need a reason for your relationships?
The Bible – best read
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” 2 Timothy 3 v 16
Why is it important to read the Bible?
“But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”
Matthew 4 v 4
Matthew 24:35
“Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear.”
Isaiah 40:8
“Grass dries up, and flowers wither, but our God’s word will last forever.”
Isaiah 55:8
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.”
