Next we introduced chapter 5 of the Kingdom Experiment, "Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy." We'll be doing these experiments for the next two weeks. We ended our time with a rap :)

JUNIOR HIGH YOUTHQUEST
We had a full night tonight. We started off by doing a group activity, then moved on to share about our Kingdom Experiment. We are on chapter 4 now, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled" (Matthew 5:6). Many of the youth shared stories of how God was stretching them through the various challenges. The most popular one was, 'The big Book. Enough said.' They committed to reading parts of the Bible expecting God to teach them something. Some read Matthew 5-7, others Psalm 119, etc. Then we had a "wrap" party where we wrapped 300 thank-you gifts for our guests who will be coming to our fundraising concert on February 8.
