My first blog

This whole blogging thing is new to me. But it is a great way to communicate, which is something that I live to do. The mane purpose of this blog is to communicate in another the way lessons I am going to be teaching at Thrive Sr. High Ministries. So lets jump right in.
We are currently doing a series based of the fact that we are made in the image of God (Gen. 1:26-27). If you have ever wondered what you were created for, this is your answer. We are created to be image bearers of God. Most important people or other "gods" use things like pictures or statues (idols) to show their likeness, but God created a race to show his image. People who are living, breathing, can think, can love. This is our purpose is to bare the image of God. But because of sin that image has been distorted and we, on our own cannot know the image of God. So God has sent his son to fix our sin problem that keeps us from knowing God, Jesus, Gods son, gave up his life so we can get right with God and start learning who God  is so we can again live as image bearers of God (Col. 3:9-10).
Have you ever allowed Jesus Christ to fix your sin problem? If not I would give it a try. Are you a follower of Jesus Christ already? If so are you becoming more and more like are creator? Are you learning about God so you can bare his image? Are you reflecting God, like a mirror, onto this world? I pray that we do!
