FCA H.O.P.E. @ Central High School
That’s a lot of acronyms… I know.
FCA = Fellowship of Christian Athletes
H.O.P.E. = Helping Others Pursue Excellence
FCA H.O.P.E. = a weekly gathering of students from all backgrounds, schools, and color that gets together each Tuesday morning at the Central High School’s theater to worship God and pray for our generation.
“When?” 6:50 AM in the morning. “That’s early!” I know. “Why?” Because it’s powerful when God’s people gather together for one cause… to worship and pray, right on campus grounds.
“Anyone can come?” Yes. Any high school student. Regardless if your from Stevens High School, Central, or home schooled. It doesn’t matter. All are encouraged to attend.
If you haven’t made it yet you’re missing out! The first and third Tuesday of every month have a “service format” (with worship and a message) while the second and fourth Tuesdays have a focus on intercession and prayer.
So… one more time. Tuesdays @ the Central High School Theater from 6:50 AM to 7:20 AM. See you there!
“My Generation” by Josh Riebock
We are going to read the book “My Generation” by Josh Riebock together and discuss it at our March 3rd, BHYW Network gathering at Alternative Fuel. Pick up your copy here.

Title: My Generation
By: Josh James Riebock
Publisher: Baker Books
222 pages | soft cover | $14.99
This is the most honest book I have read in a long time. Josh’s writing style reminds me of Donald Miller in his “Blue Like Jazz” book. “My Generation” is a book filled with numerous stories in a unified theme; more-so than just one continuous story line. The focus of these real-life stories is on the Millennial Generation or “Gen-Y”. Josh gives us a broad, sweeping glance into both his life and the lives of many that he has come across in his time as a youth pastor, member, and friend of this generation.
What is it that the Generation Y – the teenagers in our student ministries – are thinking and feeling when it comes to the church and Christianity? Why are they graduating from youth group and leaving the church? Why are they feeling disenfranchised? What’s at the core of their emotional make-up and how do we respond and reach out to them? These are several of the questions that were brought to light in a very unique and fresh way through Josh’s writing.
I love the approach that this book takes. I think everyone wanting to reach or impact the Millennial Generation should pick this one up. It’s inspiring, thought provoking, passionate, raw, engaging, and challenging. My copy is filled with earmarks that I plan on going back to and reading again.
