Lesson on overcoming evil

On Saturday 28th we had a youth alpha lesson on overcoming evil. It was significant but the most significant part was that it was Youth led. Chrisanne was busy and couldn't come so we had to organize and teach the lesson. Overall, I found that it went really well. The discussions were productive and all the Youths were well behaved that day. I always thought that it would be hard to gain control over energetic youths without adult supervision. Brian led the whole thing really well, I salute him for that. Kimberly also led the skit well too. My chocolate presentation was a bit untidy but at least they understood. There isn't much to talk about in terms of how it went but behind all this is a much greater force.
I still believe that teaching Youths may be difficult and hard to control but God had shown his grace and every one was really into the lesson and really obedient (there was also fewer of us that time). There is also the Kampar trip to thank, some of us think that it had really brought us together and build relationships between brothers and sisters(in Christ). I just want to thank God for that wonderful evening and experience we gained that day. Being a good leader does not involve shouting or harsh words to gain control over the crowd but kindness and authority. People really respect you when you show your determination and faith in the Lord.
It would be great if we got all the Youths to post their thought here so we can all share our thoughts and opinions and testimonies. How God has affected your week or what you learned in Youth Alpha.
