Parent/Student Resources:
After attending The Elijah Revolution this weekend, I purchased Lou Engle's booklet "Nazarite DNA" and read it that night before going to bed. It was so good, I already passed it along to one of our students to read who was really being challenged to take the vow of a Nazarite this year. I encourage students to check out this super easy read with a very challenging message.
You can find it HERE.
Also, I know they were selling out of the worship CDs while we were there, so here they are if any of you are interested. (You can always find them on iTunes as well)
