I think 75% of the population of Great Britain are probably still de-churched. It's the younger end, the 25%, the merging generation, who have no church background at all.

Don't worry about your future. God knows you completely, accepts you unconditionally and loves you wholeheartedly. You can trust Him.

Your age doesn't define your maturity; your grades don't define your ability; and what people say about you doesn't define who you are.

You can't change how people treat you or what they say about you. All you can do is change how you react to it.

Church is not an organization you join; it is a family where you belong, a home where you are loved and a hospital where you find healing.

I think everybody needs healing. My understanding of human beings is that we were created in the image of God but we are all fallen, and Jesus died for us so that we can be redeemed. Every Christian is in a process of healing in some way. God's original creation was good, and in some ways fallen away from that. And in every area of our life we need to be healed and restored and to become more Christ-like.

The most precious gift you can give someone is the gift of your time and attention.
