Redefined...at Christmas time.

The title rhymed- we couldn't pass it up!

Remix was back and better than ever last night. After a short hiatus for Thanksgiving break, we were pumped to see such a turn out for our first night of our Redefined series. Here's a quick recap of what Ryan talked about.

At Christmas, we tell the story about shepherds, angels, and a manger but so often the significance of the story is lost because it seems like just one more holiday tradition. Or we've heard it so many times that we do not hear it anymore. But when Jesus showed up on the very first Christmas, he redefined everything for every single one of us.

Last night we dove into the story of King Herod who felt threatened by Jesus. As Ryan unpacked Herod's story, he explained that following Jesus will cost you something, not following Jesus will cost you everything. This week, take a few minutes to discuss this idea with your teen. What sorts of things will following Christ cost them? Friendships, activities?
