Discuss
- What did you find helpful as you listened to Josh and Jesse engage in conversation about racism?
- Are there any attitudes or beliefs that you brought into tonight that need to shift? Or maybe explored?

This summer the high school ministry is heading out on an outdoor adventure to experience God through the natural beauty of His creation. On Monday June 14, 2021 our tribe of wide eyed wonderers will venture into the wilderness of Red River Gorge KY. While we are there we will carve out space for mediation, prayer, Time with Jesus, physical challenge and conversation all geared to help us grow in our intimacy with Jesus. We will return on Thursday June 17. Space is limited! Register today! Register for the Red River Trip. (if the students are interested copy the link and send it to them in a text)
