Today was our first official meeting of IOB. I'm not sure if we conquered anything, but it was fun. I enjoyed meeting and interacting with the teens. I don't think I've been around teenagers since I was one. It was amusing to see them interact and listen to the gossip. Nothing radical happened. The earth did not shake. Perhaps, we planted a few seeds. I appreciated listening to the concerns of the girls regarding God. It's a new avenue for me to listen to others discuss God and to facilitate discussion. Sometimes I feel like one of the students. I'm not as well versed in the Bible as the other team leaders are. Lucky for me, it isn't a competition. We're starting with John. It will be a challenge to reread it through the lens of applying it to teens living in and near City Heights.
Just an update; I'll try to write something with more insight and intrigue later this week.
