Being given a gift always brings about a response. The Christmas gifts my grandma gave to me sometimes created joy and sometimes they created displeasure (i.e. the year the whole family was given matching green sweaters). Regardless, a thank you was always in order and in reality I was thankful, even if the gift was less than desired.
The gift of faith that God gives us also brings about a response. We respond to love of God by living out lives of faith. We are called each day to express the gift of faith in various ways - through the Bible, worship, prayer, hospitality, service, and so on. We are called each day to respond to love God first gave us by loving God and loving others. As we explore what "Faith Alive" means this year at Luther Point, we will join together in expressing the thankfulness for the gift that God has given us.
The Faith Alive Blog will tell stories about how people within our camp community are living out faith through this ministry. Read stories from last summer's staff and look forward to what this summer's staff will have to share.
