HOW TO BE AWESOME: A 4-WEEK SERIES ON WISDOM

We all want to be awesome at life. For some of us, being awesome means getting famous, making money, or having power. God’s version of living an awesome life, though, is a little different. With God, an awesome life is a life of wisdom. In this 4-week series, you’ll help teenagers discover that the secret to living an awesome life is making wise choices. It’s about choosing the narrow road, following God’s lead, surrounding ourselves with wise people, and inviting others to do the same. 

Last month we told you about an organization we love called Axis Ideas. This month, they're hosting a FREE online conference for parents of teenagers, featuring some pretty incredible thinkers and faith leaders. Check it out! It's free!
