THE HAVE & HAVE-NOTS: A 4-WEEK SERIES ON IDENTITY
WEEK 2 BIG IDEA: You have today.

SERIES OVERVIEW:

How many times have you compared yourself with someone else today? Seriously — see if you can count. Whether it’s their stuff, their looks, their skills, or their popularity, we can’t help but notice all the things other people have, and how those things compare to all the things we wish we had. But in this 4-week series, we’re going to focus on four things that God has given to every single one of us. You have a past, you have today, you have a future, and you have a family. All four of these things make you valuable and uniquely you.

And hey — we love that you are on this team to help teenagers realize all of their potential!

At least once this month, choose a volunteer to celebrate. Add their picture and a few sentences about what makes them awesome!
