Why Christianity? This retreat was not of the norm. A speaker who was not Christian or Asian. However, that did not stop God's words from being spoken through him. From evening messages to a Q&A session by the lake, he shared his thoughts and mediations on who God is, and who we are.

We experienced trust and teamwork through the ropes course on Sunday afternoon. Through working together and building trust, we've accomplished goals including climbing a 12 foot vertical wall. with that in mind, let's use that trust and leadership and go share the love of Jesus Christ.

From potty training to boat chases, we understood living the christian life. Now, go be a troublemaker.

So why choose Christianity? Were you paying attention?
