We talked about some stuff this week. 😅
Your youth learned that dark spiritual powers... are, in fact, real.
We covered the dangers of getting involved in things like Ouija boards, séances, tarot cards, horoscopes, palm reading, fortune tellers, psychic mediums, and the like.
These are all things that operate with real spiritual power, but they're a distraction from and a counterfeit of what God offers to us.
As we told the youth last night...
"Real doesn't mean scary. Real means serious."
You see, when the church doesn't talk about stuff like this, kids find out about these (very real) powers and possibly even experience the power actually working... with friends, from social media, from "trusted" adults, etc.
These things are real powers from the demonic, and they are not for God's kids.
Why settle for a counterfeit when you can have the real thing?
Through Jesus, we have all authority over any dark powers. It's our job to exercise that authority and not open ourselves up to those dark powers.
So, we decided to talk about it! 😅
Because your youth deserve answers to their very real questions.
Because we wish someone had addressed it when we were much younger - before we had an opportunity to experiment with the things that God says to leave alone.
Maybe you've had some questions yourself! We pray this is a helpful tool for you to lead your family within the guardrails God has set up for us.
Please let us know if you have any more questions or want to discuss this topic further.
We know it's something the church has largely ignored and even dismissed. We want to help undo some of that damage.
