"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." ~Hebrews 12:2

i liked the saying that you can drink the blue koolaid in the fridge but not the blue windex under the sink. but i thought about what if you were allrigic to blue koolade.i cant wait for next year. i want to go again. i felt good at the final worship like it was meant to be. and family force five and flyleaf was awesome. and arron dequist was awesome to. i like the song changed
Words can't even describe ICTC! It made me feel special in so many ways because I know that not everyday is guaranteed to us and we need to make the most of each and everyday that we have here on Earth. It also made me stop and realize how much money us Americans throw out the window without even realizing it. Plus we take so many things for granted. Like we don't think anything of buying a bottle of water for $1 as a matter of fact we think that is a good price for 20 ounces of water and in Africa that same dollar could provide one person water for a year. I mean imagine if everybody in the United States stopped buying water for one day and donated that money to the blood water mission the thousand wells in Africa project wouldn't be a problem. We need to realize how very little can make a huge impact, and not only make us feel good, but also others. All in all we have a lot and need to learn to give even if it is just a little!
I liked the challenge to be 'clean' in my life...and it is only through Jesus can it happen. nikki, I agree with you, I liked what the singer of flyleaf had to say. we always have choices..it is between life (from God) and death (not from God); and the death can be physical, emotional, mental, spiritual. following God is about making the choice for life! I definately want to go again next year.
We have to go next year! ICTC was one of the best things I had ever experienced (besides being baptized)! The message about being clean was strong. Plus we were reminded that not everyday is guaranteed to us.
P.S.- Sorry my comment was so long last time. I didn't mean to start rambling on and on.
