UPDATE – Camp Notes

By request: Below are the Victory Verses, Main Points and Big Deals from each night of camp. Each night’s topic goes back to what you need to become a “Camp Champ” aka a champion in your walk with Christ.

Night 1 – You Need Jesus

• Main Point: Jesus is the way to God. He’s the truth about God. He’s the only way to eternal life beyond and a joyous life now.
• Victory Verse: John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth, and the life… “Without me, no one can go to the Father.
• Big Deal: Separated from God because of sin but Jesus can bring me back again.

Night 2 – You Need Power

• Main Point: Do you have the power of the Holy Spirit living in and around you? Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control. Do those describe you?
• Victory Verse: You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses… Acts 1:8
• Big Deal: I need the Power and the Fruit of the Holy Spirit! Cause people wanna see it before they hear it!

Night 3 – You Need To Represent Your Team (Are you Super-Normal?)

• Main Point: The world’s normal isn’t our normal. We are to live as sacrifices to God… that’s the norm for Christians.
• Victory Verse: Offer your bodies to him as a living sacrifice, pure and pleasing. That’s the most sensible way to serve God. Romans 12:1
• Big Deal: I’m set apart I’m on God’s Team that’s what Super-Normal means!

Night 4 – You Need A Goal

• Main Point: What is God calling you to do? Whatever it is, you can’t reach it without Him and Us. A God sized dream is bigger than you can ever ask for, think of or do on your own.
• Victory Verse: I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
• Big Deal: I may not know what He wants me to do but it’s going to require both Him and You!
