One of the best places for young people to be an example for others is at school. I believe the hallways of school are not only for educational purposes, but for opportunities to tell and show others about the power and love of Jesus Christ.
The missionary fields of our communities are the classrooms, sporting events, lunch rooms, and bus stops. What better place to allow Jesus to be glorified than a public school where God and prayer are forbidden by many educators and students. Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
Through prayer, the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and wisdom, true Christian students and faculty members should live in such a way that draws others to Christ. Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who wins souls is wise.
Take a listen to a message I ministered to our youth people about being winning fellow classmates to Jesus at school.
