When one is committed to Christ, he or she needs to give up the selfish, sinful life, and live a blessed, obedient life. In this presentation we have seen how Jesus Himself gave the example of praying to the Father. Jesus also gave us the model prayer in the Lord s Prayer. Prayer is the live connection of a Christian with the Creator, Redeemer and Sustainer, God. On the fourth day the title of the lecture was Being Young and a Christian.
Some young people feel that they are considered weird if they live by Christian principles.
There is a pressure on our youth to live, speak, act like the non-Christian friends, society, and world in general. We learned that one does not have to act weird, and he still can have a faithful Christian witness to the world. Our last day s lecture was a summary of the ones before, with the addition of the need to share our Christian faith with others. Young people have to use their opportunities to share their faith with others, just as everyone else does. Our lectures were followed by small group discussions dealing with some questions raised by the lecturer.
