"Props" to our Evangelists





This week at BYG we took a look at different ways Jesus used to bring God up and share Him with others including: using culture, meeting others needs, and taking interest in other's lives. The youth then acted out a situation that would model these methods in today's society using various props. We also continued our study of Philippians, learning more about Paul's heart for others and his prison dilemma.

There ya go! And cut me some slack..I'm working off of eight hours of sleep in the last two days! :)

matteo said...

Oh and don't blame Brett...he is not responsible.

matteo said...

although he did just sit back and take pictures while I was being threatened by that hippo. Strangest event of my life.

matteo said...

I think in the last picture Amanda's thinking, "How do you expect me to act when Tim is sitting the way he is."

Cropsterman said...

matthea you read my mind i was going to make a comment about the way tim was sitting...wow he's a stud...i am not going to lie ours was bad. between me getting really upset and just sitting there and not doing anything. from us getting up there and winging it with me doing all the talking.

Captain Kelly said...

Oh Hippo, you crazy, crazy son of a gun. Sorry I didn't try to help you fend off the hippo, Matthea, I was too busy laughing and taking pictures of it.

funbobby said...

What's up with the hippo?

funbobby said...

Brett, Last board you said Kittens and hot dog buns. There really isn't that much of a difference between kittens and cats. Cats are just bigger.

When that was my office I didn't have time to play with stuffed toys, it was a real job.....

Cropsterman said...

robin that wasnt a stuffed toy...it was a real hippo. trust me robin if a hippo of that color and size came up to you, you would stop all the "work" you did and try to calm it down. or beg for mercy.

Captain Kelly said...

Calm it down? Are all hippos angry? Anyway, airsoft = amazing. Also, Brett = Amazing at keeping Jordan, Hirschy and Logan at bay. Also, Matteo and Amanda = Best teammates ever. Also, 2 + 2 = 4. That is all.

Cropsterman said...

wow you are really good at math i haven't got that far yet. we are still working with only 2 variables or 2 different trig functions like sin, cos, tan, sec, csc, and cot. you are amazing working with whole words, and getting all new words. will you teach me. me+math=needshelp you+math=amazing. ok is that right? i think i forgot to cross multiply.

Cropsterman said...

wait i wouldnt cross multiply. i am not even multipling to begin with. i am so confused.

Hirschy said...

brett you pretty much de"molar"ized our team.....you and your pistol....and it was really funny b/c everyone asked me if i was in an airsoft war b/c of my legs.....lol..i love scars of war.

matteo said...

haha...Amanda and Hirsch...you guys made my day. Funny posts and I love the pun. Oh and amanda, I think your problem might be carrying the remainder, although you seem to have figured it out in the second equation...good work.

matteo said...

Oh and I'm tempted, Robin, to put your statement about the use of your office to the test and check out the history of visited websites on your computer. ;)

matteo said...

and I think you need to revolutionize the Spartan army, Brett...I think there is much potential

Hirschy said...

i havent seen the movie, so im speaking from knowledge (he he) and seeing the movie trailer...you dont need an army, one spartan is like is like chuck Norris, Luke skywalker, and "the Rock" all in one, but if the opposing team has mouth guards, you guys may be in for a fight.

Captain Kelly said...

No, the group is where the Spartans get their strength. Each man protecting the one next to him, and such. Also, you're missing one very important variable in there, Amanda: sarcasm. Oops, nevermind.

You don't have to get snippy, Matteo! Don't forget to update the website with new newsletter info. And I'll match my website history to yours any day of the week..... The whole airsoft thing sounds awesome, and is hirschy describing me in the last post, somehow that description just screams roboto!!!!

Anonymous said...

I have to say I miss not getting 1000 emails everytime you guys post to the blog, heh heh enjoy Matthea... :)

Hirschy said...

ohh lol..(m ) it brett..thats a good one...and yes robin i can see the resemblance in you to all 3 of those ppl....chuck Norris is old, "The Rock" has a strange/corny name, and as far as Skywalker goes..well i hope you haven't made out w/ your sister. :).

Hirschy said...

wait for it-- wait for it........

Cropsterman said...

oh that is why you wanted to know that, Brandon.

Cropsterman said...

i dont get what, "Amanda: sarcasm" means when i didnt take anything non-sarcasticly.

Captain Kelly said...

I'm sorry you don't get it.

Cropsterman said...

it is totally ok.

Hirschy said...

you know what i haven't done yet...fishing is loads of fun, YAH!.... i say we g fishing this weekend....oh wait! we have Easter this weekend, so are we even going to so anything??....ooooo man and i hope it warms up this weekend.....ahhh soo many things to think about...i think i might cry.. :(

Anonymous said...

Hirschy next time I see you crying will defintely be an option!!!!!!!

Although I have to admit that was really funny. Fishing would be good for you, maybe you could "catch" some manners.....
Old pastor robin

Hirschy said...

touche :).. lol....i have no comeback...dang..oh ya, i don't get the first sentance...is it worded wrong is there a word missing?

Cropsterman said...

that was a good one robin. brandon your was good too but really mean. robins was good in the "you cant touch this" way, and i like the "you cant touch this" way. it leaves the other dumb-struck.

Cropsterman said...

Anonymous said...

Hirschy said...

hmmm the wonders of puncuation..lol....now i get it :)....and i cant wait till you slip up and say something w/ 'comeback' written all over it, or maybe if im feeling nice ill throw a compliback your way :) that would be a nice little change of atmosphere.

Hirschy said...

LOL..ok, lets try this...." the wonders of "SPELLING".... **punctuation**

Anonymous said...

I miss complibacks!

Cropsterman said...

brandon i like the new touches you are making with your comments with the "...." in them. totally my style. and you cant miss complibacks when they were never real.

matteo said...

I'm admiring all the nice burns that were written on here within the past day...what talent

matteo said...

and I think Brett and I just finished one of the most productive/efficient afternoons ever at the church...it was amazing.

matteo said...

well at least in terms of youth ministry...after having just a portion of Robin's duties passed on to me I can't imagine what a typical day looked like for him

Captain Kelly said...

Yes, I was incredible. Matthea helped, I guess. Some.

But seriously, it was very cool. We're like Batman and Robin...except without the reference to Stoops.

funbobby said...

Hey guys. I just had to tell you ppl that I got accepted to the college/bible school that I really wanted to go to. Also, I have a cool job at the hotel by our house.

Hey Brandon, Luke Skywalker didn't make out with his sister. She just gave him a quick kiss. No tongue or anything.

Hirschy said...

sorry for that foul up LOL.....and thats great news about the college, so what hotel are you working for?

matteo said...

and what bible college are you attending?

Anonymous said...

Can there be a Batman and Robin without the reference to Stoops?

I don't think so.....
