Wednesday, May 10Zack ButterfieldFaithshakers 5Handout:Faithshakers 5So the Bible tells us that the life of a Christian should be happy a happy one right? It says "rejoice always" and "my hope is in the Lord". But at the same time, Jesus gave us clear warnings that we would be persecuted for our faith. In fact, we even saw times where Jesus was brought to tears. In This lesson we ask ourselves the question "Why do I feel sad even as a Christian?" Listen in as we dig through God's Word together to find the answer.This was our last week of Turbo Charged before taking a break. We'll pick it back up June 22. Z

Wednesday, Mar. 23Zack ButterfieldPutting Faith Into PracticeWe're back from spring break! I hope you all had a great vacation time! In this lesson we wrapped up our "Faith Driver's ed" series. Every good driver take what they learned and puts it into practice when they drive. Any driver knows that when you get your license, it's not the end of your driving career but the beginning! With this idea in mind, we remember that when you start a relationship with Jesus, it's just that... the start! Jesus does offer us complete salvation based on Grace and there is nothing we can do to earn it. So why do we need to DO anything as Christians? Take some time to listen in as we talk about that very thing. We know the basic answer: We DO everything that Jesus tells us to. So let's go deeper and find out WHY?Z

Wednesday, Mar. 9Zack ButterfieldGood Decisions in FaithIn our faith we all come across situations where we have to make decisions. Some decisions are easy like, what am I eating for breakfast today? Some decisions can be fun like, what kind of car am I going to drive when I get my license? Other decisions can be hard, like what am I going to do for my life? We all have decisions to make. Thankfully we have a guide to help us learn how to make good decisions with the wisdom God offers to give us in all of these situations. Listen in to find out more! (We did have a glitch in the recording so it sounds different. It's not you or your computer. We'll have it fixed for next week.)Z

Wednesday, Feb. 16Zack ButterfieldTemptationWhen we are drive down the road that follows Christ, there will be opportunities that come that may veer us off course. Temptations come to believers that are meant to keep us from the truth. To keep us from becoming more like Christ. To keep us from proper fellowship with Jesus. Not only should these temptations be expected, but we should prepare to stand against them as well. In this lesson we look at our best example of standing strong: Jesus. When we examine the nature of temptations, and see how He handles them, we realize we not only have a God that we can truly trust and follow, but we also have a Lord that we stand strong in.

Wednesday, Jan. 12Zack ButterfieldTraditionsHandouts:TraditionsWe all have traditions. We have our traditions with our family. Friday is Daddy Daughter Day at my house because I spend all day Friday with Ella. We have traditions with our friends. My senior buddies and I would go to Perkins every Friday morning before school. We also have traditions in our youth group. We learn about Christ, go on trips, play fun games. A lot of these traditions can be good and can be a healthy way to identify yourself. But some traditions are, well, not-so-good. In this lesson, we look at Jesus when He calls into question some not-so-good traditions that the Pharisees were trying to impose on the disciples, and we look at what He can teach us as we examine some of our own youth group traditions. I've also included the handout that we used. Use it this week in your devotion time. Have a great weekend and we'll see you next Turbo Charged! :)Z

Wednesday, Jan. 5Zack ButterfieldGroup with a DifferenceI loved my choir growing up. We had such a good time together. I loved them most because I could be myself, laugh and joke around with people my own age, and I really felt accepted. As teenagers, we all have different groups that identify us and influence us. In this lesson we look at a church youth group and ask the question, What makes FLIGHT different from these other groups? What makes us unique? When we pull back all the dynamics of our group, all of our activities, we find the true difference that is and should ALWAYS be, Jesus.Z
