walking through the bible

Last night we took our youth group through a whistle stop tour of the Old Testament, with a little help from the Lego Bible and Issy (Former Theology student!).
It was great, going through the timeline and discussing where we think people's relationship with God was at varying points in the journey. It was a really great time of learning for all of us, young and not so old!
Taking a moment to remember God's promises to his people was helpful, especially as thus far January has lived up to the impending sense of doom I felt about it on New Years Eve.

As the big man said to Josh, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."
Words I am holding onto this year.
