Tonight, the students will be hearing from one of our small group leaders, Toni Beherend, on her experience with the paranormal/occult before she came to know the Lord. I am curious to see what she has to say and how God brought her out of that life into her life with him now.
There should be some great opportunity for follow-up conversation after a night like tonight:
-Do any of your friends have stories about ghosts/spells/witchcraft/etc?
-Have you ever had any experiences like this?
-What are some of the fears/questions that you have about the supernatural world?
-How can we as Christians guard ourselves against this world while still being a friend and a resource to people in this world?
On a seperate note, I know the whole "Myspace" discussion has quieted down a bit over the past few months. If you haven't already, take a look at Kristen's and my Myspace to see what we've done to use it as a student ministry resource: www.myspace.com/mattandkristenlarson
If you have any questions about specifics of what we're talking about in the discipleship class, please comment below the blogs or email at Matt@evfree.net

Reproducing the mission of Jesus Christ
Thanks for stopping by. The goal of this page, and anything I'm involved in really, is to create the motive and opportunity for people to pursue the Jesus mission with everything they have inside of them. Beyond head knowledge of Jesus, we need to be people who are consistently helping people find their way back to God and apprenticing others to do the same. So... make it hap'n cap'n.
Writing and updates from Matt Larson, lead pastor of Anthem Church in Thousand Oaks, Ca.
