This takes a few minutes (5 min and 30 secs) to read, but I thought it was very thought provoking. I don't know if the story at the beginning is true, but I am sure something like that occurs somewhere in some form.
I remember going to youth rallies, leadership seminars, and devotionals in high school and the feeling I got when I was reminded that we have a God that we should not be ashamed of. It was invigorating, like I wanted to go out and tell everone how wonderful He is and what He does for me. And then I would get back to school on Monday, and get slammed with homework and the realities of school. And you just want to go back to the place you were with the couple hundred people who were on that spiritual high with you. I think as we get older we once again start to forget that. Maybe not on purpose, but life happens. We get busy with jobs, raising kids, mortgages, putting gas in the car.... and we know God is there, but we forget how amazing He is, and how we should be wanting to share that with everyone we come in contact with. I miss that "spiritual high" sometimes, and I miss being able to go where a couple hundred high school students where sing songs in a dark room and know that everyone around you is feeling the same closeness to God. I think that is why I liked this video so much, it was like a 5 minute and 30 second shot in the arm. Hope you get a little bit of that too.

I won't lie I couldn't sit thru all of the video but I can totally relate to the spiritual high I always got after camp. That is why I loved Impact so much. I hope I get to go to some kind of camp with the kiddos each summer.
I thought that the video was wonderful!! It gave me goose bumps. Everyday we face people who do not believe in God. It is amazing the doors that God will open for us, if we let him. Love you, Mary
