WELCOME to my site! I've finally changed it after several years. I decided to do this after realizing that my viewpoints had changed drastically from when I first developed this website. Many of these viewpoints were misguided do to my young age at the time and the pressures of some religious doctrines. I realize that this website has been linked to many other sites as a resource for youth devotions, and since these "devotions" were misguided, I found it necessary to remove them.
The Jesus Model is one of easing human suffering, so if you feel that your youth devotions are not achieving this end, then it's time to change them! Have your students make sack lunches for the hungry or other activities that help ease the pain in our world both locally and globally. Shunning "sinners" is not the way. Changing people whose lives do not cause pain in others simply because we do not like how they live is silly when so many changes can relieve pain in others!
If you would like information on what I feel is excellent religious education, please follow this link:
