Middle School Fall Retreat Theme: Uncompromised Faith
The Israelites, God’s people, were captured and taken captive by the Babylonians. They were taken from their homes, family, and everything they knew and made to live in a strange world. While in exile, they were faced with the choice of following God or giving into the demands of the world. Would they keep their Faith and follow God, or would they fall victim to their world?
We as Christians often are put in a situation where we must choose between being faithful to God or giving into the demands of the world. This Middle School Fall Retreat is going to look at the book of Daniel from the Bible and apply it to our daily lives. God has called us to have an Uncompromised Faith and to live a life that is Holy, just as God is Holy.
