LIVE LARGE
 It is a spirit of boldness. A callout to live and serve God
with unprecedented obedience. It is a life lived worthy of
God, giving God our utmost for His highest every time and
 in everything we do. Youths living large recognizes the
 times. They are urgent to reach their generation. They
embrace the call to please God, live by faith. Each enters
 the season with a burning desire to make a difference.
The more they live large, the bigger they see God in their
     lives. The larger God is, the braver one becomes.

Strategic Pillars for youthnet 2011:
      “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the
       breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many
      wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together
      and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to
     anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple
     courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere
        hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord
        added to their number daily those who were being saved.” – Acts 2:42-47

 • Quotes from youths for youth collected from a call of entries on facebook


 *White markings are crop marks for cutting. These stickers are clear vinyl stickers which will look like part of the floor and will easily remove.
 *FCBC YouthNet logo is not present on these stickers is because these stickers are meant to tease. Teasers stir curiosity which will create conversations among everyone to clarify, which is our objective in
    creating buzz, even among the adults, more so that many are engaged in youth work out there. Having the logo will defuse that curiosity effect and lessen the buzz. Addressing the concern of confusion of
    whether this is a church wide or youth event, the video, bulletin and post cards provided that day will spot the FCBC YouthNet logo which will sufficiently clarify.

These stickers are clear vinyl stickers which will look like part of the floor and will easily remove. *FCBC YouthNet logo is not present on these stickers is because these stickers are meant to tease. Teasers stir curiosity which will create conversations among everyone to clarify, which is our objective in creating buzz, even among the adults, more so that many are engaged in youth work out there. Having the logo will defuse that curiosity effect and lessen the buzz. Addressing the concern of confusion of whether this is a church wide or youth event, the video, bulletin and post cards provided that day will spot the FCBC YouthNet logo which will sufficiently clarify. • All information are proprietary to owner and not to be amended or used in any manner without prior consent

Editor's Notes

  1. Looking back at 2010 and forward into 2011, the common thread that points to God is – He is bigger. Bigger than life in 2010. Therefore as a people of faith, our celebration must be fitting of him. – BIG.
  2. The theme we have chosen this year is LIVE LARGE. A callout to youths to live large. Both intrinsically and externally. It a youth voice saying “Go broke for God!” “All out or nothing” . It ’s to tell our youths that because of our faith in action last year, we saw God moving in power and acting on our behalf. And it will be that same living out loud and living out large – extending our resources, expanding our faith that we will see God’s heart for us and people. It is all out for God or nothing at all.
  3. The inspiration came from Acts 2. From the passage about the fellowship of the believers we caught some key principles of the way the believers behaved after the empowering of the holy spirit. There was a new found unity, new found devotion. We believe that the believers in acts were living it out big for God! Big on fellowship, which is the worship of God and welcoming people. Big on devotion – a new hunger and discipline on reading of scripture, teaching, service and giving. They were so on fire that they met every day! It is base on this word, that we believe, acting on our own faith, “live large” is not only a theme for the countdown but a possible theme for youthnet for the year. Other reasons if the theme or pillars are subject of discussions : Unifying -  Last year was a stretching as I've documented within the slide. 2011 is the year of the holy spirit which corresponds to the book of acts where the church expanded in resources, people are challenged, the church grew. LIVE LARGE has more unifying tread across both years. Youth message – there is a need to interpret the year of the Holy spirit in the language of youths. LIVE LARGE “all out or nothing” is a youth voice and it represents the outflow of the book of Acts. Extendibility - This theme is more than a countdown event but a theme that symbolize the call of youth. It has the potential to have longevity and can stretch on for the year into many many creative ideas. Thus, I ’m came up with this thinking frame work to protect the creative work. Powerful - LIVE LARGE is an actionable word short enough to stay in the minds of youth and strong enough to provoke a conscious reminder and action to live as so. (Just like live strong) Sermonable – very youth message and clear direction for pastor to preach off.
