Everything you do matters. That means you have an incredible responsibility to live as righteously as you can. Thankfully, as Christians our righteousness comes from Christ. All we have to do is put our trust in him.

There are new experiences waiting all around you if you look for them. Lot's of people look at other countries, cities, and states with a "the grass is greener on the other side" mentality. It is fun to travel, but there are much more meaningful adventures waiting for you right where you are.

If you have ever tried to convince someone that they have done something wrong. You believe in Objective Morality. If you didn't, there would be no point in trying to convince someone they are wrong, because their morality is completely up to them.

Ever heard someone say "I don't believe in Christ because Christians are so....." or something similar? Yes, Christians make mistakes. Sadly, those mistakes sometimes turn people away from God.

Christians are far from perfect. That's actually why we became followers of Christ. We need his help to become more like him.

We have to be careful to not put anyone, no matter how good and Christ-like they seem to be, in the position of Christ. We are called Christians because we follow Christ. Anyone else will inevitably let you down.

America is incredibly divided. And it seems like lots of people are completely unwilling to listen to anyone who disagrees with them. They immediately dismiss people they disagree with as being "Idiots" or "sheep". But this way of living isn't helping anyone. These are not simple issues. So even if it seems obvious to you which side is right and which is wrong, remember that there is always someone smarter than you who disagrees with you. And it's definitely worth your time to hear what they have to say.
