Summer School of Truth: Experiencing Christ in Everyday Life

“Jesus said to him, I am the way and the truth and the life” (John 14:6) Summer Schools of Truth are focused on the truth – not in the way of doctrine, but in the way of experiencing Jesus Christ, who is the truth. This year, junior high and high school students from Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama studied God’s full salvation and the church, and how these apply to their everyday Christian life. For example, one lesson encouraged students to turn to the Lord within them when faced with difficult situations (Gal. 2:20, 2 Cor. 13:5). Asked for a highlight, one student responded, “We all have the responsibility in building up the church. Let all things be done for building up." Between messages and lessons, students enjoyed volleyball games, foosball, and shared meals. Asked for his highlight of the week, one student answered simply: “Being together with the saints.” It’s the same joy and oneness the psalmist describes in Psalm 133, found not just in meetings but in everyday moments with the church.
