At this important time in history, God is raising up a movement of young adults and awakening their hearts to intimately encounter Him, that they might give themselves to love Jesus with all their hearts, proclaim His Word to their generation, and bring the kingdom to every sphere of society.  ONETHING Regionals exist to communicate these truths to high school and college students everywhere. It is our dream to see thousands upon thousands make the decision to embrace the glory of living a life of one thing, as expressed by King David in Psalm 27:4."One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple (Ps. 27:4, NKJV)"

GENERATION CHANGE Series by Dave Ramsey
Here is an email I sent out last week, but wanted to include in case some of you missed it. We do need to get a count as soon as possible and unfortunately we don't have the starting date solidified yet. It will definitely be after CFL camp, but are unsure quite when we will get it off the ground.

I have been in communication with Phil Semlow about an opportunity to offer "GENERATION CHANGE" Bible Study by Dave Ramsey to our Junior High and High School students. We would like to get an idea of how many students would be interested in taking this study before we pursue purchasing the materials needed. It will either be a 4-week or 8-week course, depending on when we run the study and how much time we have at each session (Right now we are looking at running it Sunday mornings from 9am-9:45am before Sunday morning service.) Please review the material, watch the info video and discuss it as a family to see if this is something you would be interested in. The study does require a student journal kit, which are $19.99 per student. We will get a discount with our Leader order and would probably be able to offer the kits at much less (I am hoping to get it down to $10 per student). Please reply to this email with your interest or sign our sign-up sheet located at the Welcome Center.*

I am very excited at the possibility of offering this to our students. Most JH and HS students have very little concept of money and their responsibility to God to handle it appropriately. What a great opportunity to have this information under their belt at a very young age!

GENERATION CHANGE Information:

Taught on video by personal money-management expert Dave Ramsey, *Generation Change* is an entertaining  and informative Bible study for youth that shows today’s students how money
really works, how God views money, and how they can grow into financially responsible young adults. Check out this video for a short introduction.

Every day, our youth are bombarded with a million different voices—everything from billboards to internet ads—telling them who they are and measuring their worth by what they have. The pressure to be accepted in today's "stuff-centered" world drives them, and perhaps even their parents, to throw money away on things that don't matter—all in an attempt to "be somebody." As a result, we're raising a generation that spends money they don't have to buy things they don't need to impress people they don't even like! It's time for a change!

*Generation Change* is taught by Dave Ramsey on DVD. You'll begin the class with the 10-15 minute video, then move to a time of discussion using questions outlined in the student journals. This is followed by activities that illustrate the lesson for the day.

Lesson 1: The Value of You: In this lesson, students will recognize the
value they have in God’s eyes. They will understand that God, not stuff,
defines them.

Lesson 2: Materialism Mayhem: In this session, Dave uncovers and explains
the dangers of credit. He discusses how teens can protect themselves while
changing their family tree forever!

Lesson 3: Money Minds: In this lesson, students will gain the tools to make
wise purchases, learn how to manage money using a simple envelope system,
and understand the importance of saving.

Lesson 4: The Gift of Giving: Dave teaches the biblical truth that giving is
a spiritual act of worship. Students will understand how giving is vital to
their financial and spiritual well-being.
