STUDENTS ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS
[THE ROCK] Middle School 6:05-7:30pm
[THE ROAD] High School 7:35-9:00pm
February:: He's Not Edward-
Edward is the idolized, romanticized character in the movie Twilight. This Hollywood movie puts a unrealistic spin on teenage relationships. We want to show students that Gods standard of purity in relationships is far from what Hollywood tries to convince them of.
We will end February with the beginning of our How to Series. This series is designed
because we have heard students asking how do we _____.
03:: Lust/Idolatry
10:: Purity
17:: Marriage
24:: How to: Read the Bible
