Fumc Youth Blog


In 2010, the youth ministry at First United Methodist Church in Lebanon, TN decided that we wanted to be more. More than a social gathering. More than surface-level dialogue. More than games, bells, and whistles. These teens are a generation hungry for God. They are dissastisfied with the world as it has been presented to them. They dare to dream. They long to be challenged. They shudder at mediocrity. They want to be relevant and to make a difference.
Join us as we post (weekly-ish) our adventures on this journey. We hope that you often laugh, are occassionally challenged, and always encouraged by the stories we have to share. There is nothing special or flattering about our group, just a bunch of teens (and a few adult volunteers) stumbling thorugh life - trying to discover truth, celebrate God, and find a purpose. We are imperfect, messy, naive, and unheralded. But that is the kind of people God most often uses. When you throw Perfection into the blender, the result is never ordinary.
"When we are wholly His we will be more ourselves than ever."
- C.S. Lewis
