Day 100: UCSC Fall Advance


2 Corinthians 7:1 "Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bring holiness to completion in the fear of God."
This was our theme verse for the weekend. It was an INCREDIBLE weekend. We cried, laughed, confessed, and grew together spiritually. 
I love to watch God work in this amazing group of students!
Typically, we Christians don't confess, for a number of different reasons. We don't trust the people to keep our secret. We don't want to open up to people. We think people won't care. We think people will look at us differently (and sometimes, they will). The early church in the bible talked about confession and keeping each other accountable. Today's church pretends they're perfect and that nobody has any problems. 
It's time to change that. It's time to build the environment with people who TRUST and LOVE and CARE. The UCSC is actually trying to make this happen. We want to be the revolution that changes how Christians interact with each other. 
I am so thankful that God is using the UCSC to help this happen.
