It’s All About the Campfire

Many wonder why I organize the many events that we do with the youth. While biblical instruction is vital, building relationships is equally essential, and in fact, the events have a natural way of nurturing relationships and facilitating the reception of biblical teaching.

Take, for example, last weekend. I took nine people camping at Barjetty Campground in Rockaway, OR. We ran on the beach. We attempted to see the sunset, although it was cloudy. However, we did see sunrays peeking on the horizon. We played cards, some of us went to a maritime museum, and we made s’mores, having a great time. But the most significant experience was sitting around a campfire and discussing questions they had, such as how predestination and free will work, or what about other Christian denominations. And the most poignant was our discussion about faith on Sunday morning. Considering Hebrews 11:6, which states, “Without faith, it is impossible to please God, for one must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.” While faith is vital, it is the object of our faith that genuinely matters. Not only is there a God, but who is He, and what is He like? And then, realizing in our discussion that a mere belief isn’t necessarily faith; instead, an active and genuine faith requires activity, earnestly seeking God daily for my sake.

Now you see what happens on a retreat. Whether it’s youth retreats or other church-sponsored retreats, make an effort to attend. Not only will you have fun, but you will also deepen friendships within the church, and more importantly, you will grow closer to God.
