Filtered

By Matt Sasso, Pastor of Student Ministries

Our world easily corrupts us, but we are able to filter what we see. So many messages and values are passed on by our culture, and we are so impressionable. 

During this four-week series in Exit 83, we are going to learn how to filter our world through the lens of God’s Word. Throughout the process, we will use different types of filters to illustrate how God’s Word can help us change the channel, bounce our eyes, and reveal our desperate need for more of His presence in our lives. Oh, it would be easy to just lock ourselves in a convent for the rest of our lives, but then how would an unbelieving world see a loving God? We need to learn how to filter our world. 


During this series our student ministry will spend four weeks looking at these words of Jesus: “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!” (Matthew 6:22-23). During this series we hope that your students are challenged to passionately pursue life in Jesus and to lead others to do the same.
