Powerful video to show at your church service this Sunday morning | |
The vision of First Priority is the Hope of Christ in every student
 | | There is Hope! |
Click here to download and save video
As students are preparing to return to school next week, we are asking everyone to please show the powerful video above during their church service this Sunday, August 19. This
generation of students is faced with many challenges such as peer pressure to abuse drugs and alcohol, negative influences in the media, homosexuality, sex before marriage, abortion, school violence and gang activities, fear, low self-esteem and so much more.
The statistics of the challenges that teenagers in America face are hard to believe and understand. A common response we get is, "I never knew" or "How did it get this way?"
The simple answer is, "There is no hope apart from Christ." The solution is a spiritual one: The Gospel of Jesus Christ is Hope. It is the power of God to save us.
Check out www.gofirstpriority.com for more information on our movement to reach a generation of teenagers with the Hope of Christ.
Please share this video with your church on Sunday as students return to school. Pray for and commission students as they enter the mission field on their campus for the new school year. Please share this video on your Facebook and Twitter pages as well.
