Authenticity

As I begin to pray about the possibility of working with, running, being in charge of, shaping, the youth ministry at our church, one word comes to mind: Authenticity. As I look at the definition these things come to mind: genuine, faithful, accurate or reliable, denoting an emotionally appropriate, significant, purposive, and responsible mode of human life. Add to that “in Christ.” You get a coupled response of truth. Authenticity in Christ. A Christ like life that is authentic is purposive, significant, THE WAY of life.
