Hope 4 Life

When Baltimore Ravens' quarterback Trent Dilfer came off the bench to replace Tony Banks eight weeks into the 2000-2001 season, he inherited a Ravens offense that had not scored a touchdown in 16 quarters and 49 possessions. It was the longest dry spell since 1993 when the Indianapolis Colts went 20 quarters without a touchdown.

There didn't seem to be a whole lot of hope for the Ravens, but Dilfer immediately proved he was the man for the job. The seven-year NFL veteran, who held a one-year contract with the Ravens, guided his team to ten consecutive regular season victories and the prestigious Super Bowl XXXV title. Hope turned into victory.

On Wednesday night, October 12, Revolution Student Ministries will be having a unique event called Hope 4 Life, where students like you will be sharing about how they have found hope in nine of the basic felt needs among teenagers.

Self-Esteem: Karissa Merritt
Love: Sophie Chleborad
Intimacy & Sex: Chris Mengel
Family & Divorce: Lanka Richards
Health & Addictions: Chrissy Nelmes
Friendships: Rebekah Overly
Keys to Success: Zach Doyle
Wisdom: Steve Wichern
Facing the Future: Tyler Saxton

This will not be your typical student service. In a talk-show question and answer format, our guest students will discuss some of their personal life experiences and point us to Hope 4 Life.

Remember, as you step off the sidelines in your journey with Jesus Christ, the Bible is your playbook. Link to an online Bible at On Course by clicking on "Resourses."

Don't forget, next Wednesday's concert with Petra, Farewell June, Bread of Stone, and Sarah Brendel!
