Second Chance by Molly

God gave me a second chance at life; it’s that simple. My “first” life was like a jigsaw puzzle, the pieces not fitting together perfectly and creating a greater picture. All of the components of my life in China are a blur, but all I know is that if God hadn’t given me a second chance, my life wouldn’t be as it is today. It’s funny to think that if one little event in…

Especially for youth ministers and leaders: The Regional Council of Churches is partnering with the Georgia Dept. of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities in SHARE HOPE. Suicide is a leading cause of death in young people. What is the role of the faith community in ministering to troubled young people? Share Hope is an interfaith social media contest to promote the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. Because we know that just pausing before acting often stops a suicide attempt, 988 is one important tool in fostering a healthy community. Have a look www.988ga.org/faith. This activity could be a great way to start off the school year with your creative youth group. And, your group could win a $250 Pizza Party--there will be ten winners.
