Today Ange and i were at the Mall and we saw a youth with a hideous haircut. Downright awful it was.
And it made me think... That guy should become a Christian.
I could only imagine the impact that someone, who willingly tries to stand out, can make for Christ.
Often, the church avoids people (especially young people) who stand out. People with weird or dyed hair. Or tattoos. Or piercings. Or all of the aforementioned.
These people, if on fire for God, can make a massive impact in their world. They are (caution: generalisation ahead!) either leaders who people follow, or people who are confident enough to be different (or both).
But these people aren't in churches all that often. Or they are, but are told to tone down and "fit in".
Reason #1 to do scripture in high school: You have contact with these kids.
The odd kids.
The weird kids.
The kids that are often avoided by churches.
The potential difference makers.
