Men of Valor and Her Virtue Registration on Sunday Mornings

Cacho — Sat, 17 Mar 2012 15:40:28 +0000

Ok folks, I know we have been advertising that registration for Men of Valor and Her Virtue 2012 would be available on Sunday mornings in the foyer at the Youth Booth, but the online registration system is a bit more complex than we perceived. But, we will be providing something that has been used from the dawn of time: paper forms for registrations! Yes, we will have those ready for you to fill out and sign to secure a spot for MOV or HV ’12. Sorry any inconvenience!

The Encounter – March ’12 Wrap Up

Cacho — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 16:05:25 +0000

The Encounter was quite a night last night! We were privileged to have The BCM Band come lead us in an awesome time of worship! Our media team brought it’s best to the table with their version of video announcements, called Action News AND a promo video for our Love INdeed social justice initiative. And, as always, Pastor Jacob brought the good stuff with a message that teenagers desperately need to hear. Not to mention, our foyer looked AWESOME, thanks to Misti, Cecily, and the rest of the Guest Services team. It was truly a special night for RevoYouth. We look to improve on it in the upcoming months! Stay tuned in with revolutionyouth.tv to see photos captured at The Encounter!

The Encounter November Review/Love INdeed Outreach

Cacho — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 18:05:04 +0000

Hey guys! Sorry about the lack of updates to the website, we’ve been really busy getting ready for and putting on The Encounter, our new once-a-month youth celebration service! I cannot describe how awesome it was to see full families there, worshipping God together, unified in love. Pastor Jacob gave a great message on turning Garbage Dumps into Gardens and how God makes beautiful things out of us. We will be sticking with that theme all month, so you don’t wanna miss out as we dive into what that means for us here and now! For those of you who weren’t able to make it or don’t know what the Encounter is, go to the “Events” tab above and click on “The Encounter” to learn more about it! Our next one will be on December 4th. More details to come.

Also, this Saturday our outreach initiative, Love INdeed, is providing an opportunity for YOU to serve in the community and be the light of God, right here in Durant, Amuuuuurica! We will be helping out at Victory’s Hands of Hope Outreach Food Bank, this Saturday, November 12, and we will be meeting at 9:30am in Victory Life’s parking lot. There is a permission slip required to go, so if you don’t have one yet, go to Revolution Youth’s Facebook page and download it from the “Photos” section, fill it out, have it signed by mom or dad, and bring it Saturday morning! It’s gonna be fun on the bun!

“I’m seeking God, now what”

Cacho — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 03:43:56 +0000

I am seeking God, now what do I do?

I truly believe that people are confused when it comes to seeking God. Too many times we simply seek God for an answer to a question or for a sense of direction when it comes to life. This is not to say that those things are not worth seeking God for but it is to say that simply seeking God for those things ultimately results in anything but an answer. What we need to begin to understand is that seeking God means just what it says, we are seeking him!

From when I first meet my wife Serena to now after a full year of marriage, a lot has changed in the subjects of abilities, responsibilities, and intimacy of relationship. When I first meet her there was no way to talk about the things we talk about now, ask each other the things we ask now, or understand each other like we do now. This is in no way to say that we have each other figured out completely, but it is to say that we have progressed in our relationship. With God it works in the same way. How can we ask God to promote us to a level we want to be at, or ask him what we need to do with the rest of our life without seeking first a relationship with him? We as Christians get stuck in a rut; we have it mixed up in our heads that to seek God means to seek him for what we want. Granted that every good and perfect gift comes from the Father of lights, and God wants to richly bless you. But how could you ask someone you barely know to drive you across the United States to see your sick mom. You would ask someone you have a trust for and relationship with, and somebody you enjoy being around (it would be a long drive after all).

Seek first the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added unto you (Matthew 6:33). Talking to God needs to be become a conversation, not a request list. We have to be able to know that God desires the fullness of his love to be present in your everyday life. There is a reason you are restless with tedious tasks of everyday life, there is a reason you feel that you are meant for more. You have the Spirit of the God that laid the foundations of universe inside of you, duh….you are meant to be doing extraordinary things. Not only are we supposed to be doing the works of Christ but even greater works (John 14:12). Notice that in this verse Jesus is saying that these works are for those who believe on him, in other words, those who trust him. You cannot trust what you do not know. God has made himself known in the man Jesus Christ, who was fully God and fully man, in order that you can approach the throne of Grace full of confidence and begin your father – child relationship with the Lord. Christ is calling out by the Holy Spirit throughout the church (Revelation 2:7,11,17,29) reminding us of what is in store for those who finish this race, encouraging one another to good works, and to keep their eyes fixed on the image of the hope of all glory, King Jesus.

May God grant you the perseverant spirit of boldness and courage in his Son in order that you might be exalted in due time. Let me leave you with this verse.

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. (1 Peter 5:6-7)

Love in Christ,

Zach Backues
