Camp, Content and Context

Chris has been one of Ember's biggest fans ever since before we started, so its a big honor to work with him at camp this summer.

We've been in close contact in the past few weeks as our outline and content has developed. It's one of those essential ministry/missions concepts that you inherently understand but maybe can't articulate - the concept of contextualization. You know that whatever you are teaching has to fit into the context of the people you are teaching. Context and culture are important. You already knew it but when someone pointed it out to you, a lot clicked. We're convinced the same happens with middle school kids this summer.

Also in the content bag - person of peace and redemptive analogies.
