Preparation for the Orlando Burn Event!

We are 19 days away from one of the most anticipated event of the summer “The Burn Event Orlando”.   To view our line up visit our second blog “Click here”.  Doors open at 6:30 PM Saturday Night, June 7^th at The Living Edge Church.  Visit The Burn Event’s website for more detail.

If you are looking for something different or you are just a lost individual that just can’t figure out what your next steps in life are then you need to be at this event.  The Event is totally free and a select few individuals will receive some gifts.  For the past year The Burn crew has been preparing for this one single event because we believe it will be the best one yet.  It’s not about the number of individuals who attend, but that one person who can hear the word and change the world.  This is not your ordinary event, it has a twist where we just let the Lord flow and let whatever happen.  You as an attendee will not just sit in a chair and listen to people talk.  We have a lineup that will totally transform the way you look at church or a youth group.  The line-up we have is incredible, so come expecting. 

It has been 3 years since we had our first event on 9/11, 2011 and we are prepared to take this to the next level.  Our goal is to provide you with the tools to not only reach your goals, but your dreams.  This event cannot be explained, but only experienced.  Join us June 7^th at 6:30 PM and leave changed.  This is a critical time in your life and there is something pulling you to come to this event.  We will be looking for that one individual that will change the world. 

Tell your friends, your family, your siblings, your church, and your cousins, anyone you can possible think of to join us for this event.

How to help your Schools through Youth Ministry

Most of us has experienced the craziness of Junior High and High School.  Just like everyday life we have our ups and downs.  I remember some days where I thought I’d never make it, which caused me to make chaotic choices.  The choices we make in our youth sometimes determine the rest of our lives.  It is important to impact the youth with the message of Jesus.  On average, 11 percent of students attend church in the United States. 

Read this additional article to get a better understanding of why kids don't want to go to church.  

Understanding how the youth of this nation think is key to figuring out how to approach them.  Over 95 percent of youth attend school.  That is one of the largest mission fields in America. Why doesn't that 95 percent attend church?  I am not in a high school 5 days a week for 8 hours a day.  The route to take is to start School Ministry out of the 11 percent that attend the church.  Teaching them and giving them the tools to reach that 95 percent. 

These individuals need to pray for their schools daily and have a passion to tell the story of Jesus to share the story of how their life has changed.  Not everyone will listen, but the ones that do could be the individual that could change the world.  Pastors, leaders, and volunteers will never be able to reach the youth like our students can. 

Youth leaders should already be passionate about reaching this generation and struggle to find ways to spread the love and peace in the schools that are one mile down the street.  This is the way to go and the quickest route to take.  It is important to understand that it won’t happen overnight, but it is a starting point and will be rewarding in the end. 

"Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity."  - 1 Timothy 4:12

Young people need models, not critics.

How to Become a World Changer!

"All the nations are as nothing before God, They are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness." (Isaiah 40:17)  

Reread this passage and think about what this means.  The past is the past and we cannot go back to change that, but what we have is the present and our future.  Look at the past and some of the most influential leaders from 2,000 years ago.  Look at Noah, Isiah, or Martin Luther King Jr.  They were all great leaders, but are nothing more than dust and ashes today and they made a difference in this world that God will remember forever.  

World Changers believe they can make a difference and is a person who sees life through the eyes of God's power and wisdom.  

Commit to defending your ground and stand strong despite the odds or cost of what is needed to get the job done.  (See Psalm 108:12-13)

 

George Washington was a leader.

To be a world changer you will need to work on your leadership skills:

• You will need to be creative because ever leader needs to think of creative ways to get tasks accomplished. 

• You will need confidence because you will need to be calm and confident in certain situations.  

• Communication is an important role for leadership.  

• As a leader people will follow you, it is important to be honest and to not delegate your morals. 

• Having a positive attitude is important to the people around you. 

• Commitment, do not go back and forth on decisions already made.  Follow your instincts.

• You will need to be inspiring because others will want to follow your ways.

 Right down your goals and dreams in life and what you want to accomplish.   

Right down how old you are today next to your goals and put down in three years you will accomplish each and every one of them if you let God take the wheel.  It is important to remember that it only takes one individual to change the world and to reach millions of people. 

Everyone believes a world changer is someone that changes millions of lives around the world, but that is not correct.  A world changer is somebody that can make a difference even if it is for just one person because that one person could be the one changing the world. 

You are the one God is looking for!

The Burn Event

 Burn  – Believe, Unite, Run the Race, Never Give Up!

The Burn Event was born in 2011 when a local youth ministry advertised a corporate night of worship in Southeastern Michigan.  What we thought would be a few groups joining together turned into over 1,000 students, young adults and leaders from across the area.

The passion in the room was tangible, and everyone knew God was doing something amazing.

Now, 3 years later we are at the beginning of a movement that is marking a generation.  In every city, young people who were captive to alcohol, sex, drugs, or depression are finding purpose, freedom, and the love of God. We know this is a critical time for the church to restore broken youth who are searching for answers.

We invite you, your church, your school, your family, and your friends to join us for a night of awakening.  We are leading a generation out of darkness into light, from blindness to vision, by giving them an opportunity to authentically experience God.
It can't be explained only experienced.
Join us and leave changed.
