Labyrinth One: It’S Not Exclusive LABYRINTH ONE: IT’S NOT EXCLUSIVE BOTTOM LINE: WHEN IT COMES TO HEARING GOD, ANYONE AND EVERYONE IS INCLUDED. INTRODUCTION “Why do they have it all together?” “Why can’t I ‘get it’ like they do?” “How can I be as close to God as they seem to be?” Sometimes we have these kinds of questions when it comes to our faith. And, sometimes, we feel like everyone else has it all together when it WONDER. comes to hearing God and knowing where their life is going. It can DISCOVERY. make us feel excluded from God’s plan and from knowing what that PASSION. plan is for us. But the truth is God does have a plan for you and does want to speak to you and use you. So maybe, when we wonder why WWW.XP3STUDENTS.ORG we can’t seem to connect with God, we need to stop wondering what is wrong with us, and ask ourselves instead, who do we believe God CHIEF EXECUTIVE to be?

STATEMENT OF FAITH ABOUT GOD God is the one and only true God, yet He exists in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. God is the Creator, so everything belongs to Him and is under His control. God is holy, so He is righteous, majestic and loving. God is all knowing and purposeful, so He’s at work to bring about His will. No person, thing or idea compares to God. ABOUT THE SCRIPTURES God reveals Himself to us through the Bible, and it is 100% accurate, reliable and authoritative. ABOUT PEOPLE People are made in God’s image and for His pleasure. But everybody falls short of God’s intention, or ideal, for people. In other words, everyone has sinned. As a result, we are all separated from Him, even though He wants an intimate relationship with each of us. ABOUT SALVATION That’s why Jesus, God’s Son, came and lived on this earth, died and rose again. God offers His free gift of salvation to all who believe in Jesus and accept Him as Savior, the only way to be forgiven and reconciled to God. Anyone who accepts this gift is adopted as a son or daughter into God’s family and will live with Him forever in heaven.

CREATING THE EXPERIENCE Pg. 1 We believe that the set, stage, music and everything in your room communicates a message—without you saying a word. That’s why we put together a list of production ideas to help you set the stage for the session and the series. From the music you play when students come in the room to the worship set your band plays, we want to make sure that your room conveys “Labyrinth” in a multi-sensory way. There is a downloadable checklist available in your series downloads that will give you all the elements for this session (and the entire series). BACKGROUND PLAYLIST FOR LABYRINTH SERIES “Flashing Red Light Means Go” by The Boxer Rebellion (from Union) “End of Me” by Building 429 (from Building 429) “We Are Broken” by Paramore (from Riot!) “This” by Darius Rucker (from Charleston, SC 1966) “Don’t Carry It All” by The Decemberists (from The King Is Dead) “Consider the Ravens” by Dustin Kensrue (from Please Come Home) “Don’t Waste Your Life” by Lecrae (from Rebel) “The Cave” by Mumford & Sons (from The Cave and the Open Sea) “The Outsiders” by NEEDTOBREATHE (from The Outsiders) “Beautiful Ending” by BarlowGirl (from Love & War) WORSHIP PLAYLIST FOR LABYRINTH SESSION ONE “Save Me from Myself” by Carpark North (from Lost) “You” by Hillsong Live (from A Beautiful Exchange) “Where the Spirit of the Lord Is” by Chris Tomlin (from And If Our God Is for Us, Deluxe Edition) “Live for You” by Connersvine (from Connersvine) “From the Inside Out” by Hillsong Live (from Mighty to Save) THE SET Obtain three large poster boards or banners to create this set. More creative students can be called upon to draw these mazes or outline them from a projector image. Each poster will have a different maze or labyrinth drawn or printed on it and a new poster will be displayed each week of the series. Session one will display a poster with a high level of difficulty, a lot of turns and passages that make it time consuming and confusing. This labyrinth will help convey to the students the frustration we face when we try and manage every aspect of life and seek to direct it by our own means. Session two will display the first poster as well as a second poster with a new, more intermediate level maze that will continue to rep- resent what life looks like for us when we begin allowing God to take hold of our decisions. Session three will display the first and second posters, along with a third poster with a maze that can easily be solved to finally illustrate the simplicity of God’s will for our lives—loving Him and loving people while not getting so caught up in the nooks and crannies of life. It’s about getting to the center, the crux of it all, to glorify God. WWW.XP3STUDENTS.ORG ©2011 Orange. All Rights Reserved. CREATING THE EXPERIENCE Pg. 2 Below are a visual examples of how this set might look. To cover more space on stage, or if your budget permits, you may also want to hang additional mazes with fishing line in varying sizes and heights to create a fuller back ground or hand out 3X5 cards with a maze printed on them as a take-home visual reminder to students of what they learned during this series. To best communicate this idea of progressing simplicity the speaker may want to take a few minutes during the message to solve the maze. If you’re drawing these by hand, this link provides a step-by-step guide to creating a labyrinth: http://www.herbsfromthelabyrinth.com/labbox96gif.gif For images similar to these search “Celtic labyrinth designs.” SERIES ART Art for PowerPoint backgrounds and for series promotional ads is available as a free download with every series.

MIDDLE SCHOOL ADAPTATION: LABYRINTH The following activities and illustrations will help middle school students connect with the subject matter in ways that engage them physically, mentally, socially and sometimes emotionally. You can also adapt the Labyrinth series for middle school students by using the teaching outline found in this document to edit the teaching script to a 20-minute presentation. In addition, by using the separate middle school small group dialog questions (found in the series downloads) that are geared specifically for sixth to eighth graders, you can make each section more middle-school friendly. SESSION 1 GAME: TOUCHY FEELY (Play this game as an icebreaker to Session 1.) For this game, you will need five brown paper bags, numbered 1 through 5. You will also need five common household items, such as a remote control, hairbrush, Scotch Tape, etc. (the more oddly shaped, the better). If you have a larger sized group, you may want to find ten items instead of five. Place each of the items in a paper bag. Have your students sit in a circle and then pass the items around, one at a time, for each student to feel. Each person is allowed 15 seconds to hold the bag and then they have to pass the bag to the next person. Each student will need a pen and paper to write down what they think each of the items is. After you have passed the items around and everyone has had a chance to guess what they are, call out the correct answers from each numbered bag.

  • Katie: a Daughter with a Dad-Shaped Hole
    Hard Times & Hope, episode 9 Katie: A daughter with a dad-shaped hole Today’s guest is KATIE. Katie and I met through a freelancer’s workshop, where we connected and became friends. Most of the time, when I have these hard times & hope conversations, until the guest says it, I don’t know what the hard time is that they’re going to reference. But with Katie, I knew, and it’s something I wanted to give space for on this podcast. Trigger Warning: this episode includes mentions of contemplated and completed suicide. It’s okay. It’s a good conversation. Let’s go! Jule: Katie, thank you so much for taking the time to be here for this conversation. I am so excited about it. Katie: Thank you for asking me to be part of this project, I was excited that from your day one and just to be involved is , it just makes me, it fills me with so much joy. Jule: You know about the whole podcast journey for me. That's really cool. Katie: Yes, indeed. Jule: And now you're even more a part of it. So this is hard times in hope. And I was wondering, just to frame our conversation. What's the hard time you're planning on using for reference? Katie: I will be using my dad's suicide. However, despite the fact that that in and of itself is like a big splunk of a brick and like still lake water , it's actually the reverberation, that like ripple effect of that big brick in the still water over the last 18 years that has really that's the hard times and hope that I'm going to kind of talk about.

  • The Whosoevers in 2005
    During an outreach concert in Rochester, NY, Brian “Head” Welch performs “Adonai,” a song he wrote about God’s redemption. The song appears on Head’s album Save Me from Myself, which he released after surrendering his life to Christ and withdrawing from the multiplatinum band Korn The Whosoevers in 2005. Head now partners with Ryan Ries, Sonny Sandoval, and Ronnie Faisst of the Whosoevers to reach teens.

  • Advance Praise for Denial Is My Spiritual Practice “Rachel G. Hackenberg and Martha Spong Speak with Honestly and Humor About
    Advance Praise for Denial Is My Spiritual Practice “Rachel G. Hackenberg and Martha Spong speak with honestly and humor about ‘denial’ and ‘failures of faith.’ They give readers a no-holds-barred presentation of their personal, interpersonal, and professional struggles and losses. Through beautiful stories these amazing women teach the reader how to move through denial and failure into acceptance and grace. With insightful vision, they paint a picture of life that prevails on the other side of failure using witty and irreverent revelatory and profound stories. If you are searching for honesty in the life of faith and how to live in the midst of strug- gles, this book will be a balm to your spirit.” —The Rev. Becca Stevens, founder of Thistle Farms and author of Love Heals “Disciplines of prayer and piety often feel far removed from the grit of our daily lives. Yet, through these pages, Martha Spong and Rachel Hackenberg are more than ministers; they become sisters on a journey. With each chapter, they give us the gift of compassion on ourselves, even in our darkest denials and in divine silences.” —The Rev. Carol Howard Merritt, author of Healing Spiritual Wounds: Reconnecting with a Loving God after Experiencing a Hurtful Church “Rachel and Martha take a tremendous leap of vulnerability in Denial Is My Spiritual Practice. In sharing their personal stories of love and loss, they invite readers to participate with them as part- ners in universal dance of making friends—or at least peace—with both our light and our shadowy spaces. This book will resonate with anyone who has ever learned the hard lesson that burying one’s head doesn’t in fact make the hard thing go away.

  • Brian Head Welch
    BRIAN “HEAD” WELCH, was born June 19, 1970 and grew up in Bakersfield, California. He found his calling at age eleven when he picked up his first guitar. Voracious practicing and a steady diet of hard rock classics filled in the ensuing years, and shortly after high school, he co-founded a metal band named Korn. The band soon became a Grammy award-winning, multi-platinum force that shot to the top tier of the rock world and dominated the new metal movement of the late Nineties. Korn’s 1998 Follow the Leader album cemented the band as rock titans when they debuted at number one on the Billboard charts, fighting off new releases from mainstream heavyweights Dr. Dre and Celine Dion. For his efforts with Korn, Head received six Grammy nominations, winning two, while selling some 40 million records worldwide. As Korn continued to reach new creative and commercial heights, Head found himself drowning in the excesses of rock and roll. Far from immune to the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Head became addicted to crystal meth, spiraling out of control even as he continued to sell millions of albums. He gamely but unsuccessfully tried to balance his career and his obligations as a single father to his daughter Jennea. In 2005, he finally resigned from Korn and turned to Christianity, dedicating his life to giving his gifts to those most desperately in need. Just months after his Korn exodus, Head traveled to India to open up his first “Head Home,” an orphanage that provides housing, food, and education to some 200 orphans in the most unreachable parts of India.

  • Letters to an Orphan (Pdf)
    m IB mm mm— R ^B Book , GopightN COPYRIGHT DEPOSIT. Letters to an Orphan FROM A BUSINESS MAN TO HIS STENOGRAPHER BY F. L. ROWE F. L. ROWE, PUBLISHER CINCINNATI, OHIO Copyright, 191 i, by F. I,. Rowe CI.A305214 INTRODUCTION. When a person plays an important part in any action that benefits an individual or society in general, it is but proper that rec- ognition should be accorded such person. These " Letters" in their inception were intended only for the one person or "Orphan" to whom addressed, and numbered only three or four. The recipient, recognizing some benefit in them to herself, encouraged the author to go on and write some more; and later suggested that they be revised and put in permanent form. The author, therefore, feels it a pleasant duty to give credit for the existence of these "Letters" to one who, for eight years, was a faithful helper, and who in the later years of her service took such a personal interest in office matters as to make her invaluable. No effort has been made to dress up these "Letters," and thus give them an unnatural stiffness. They are written in the author's 4 INTERS TO AN ORPHAN. regular every-day style, and we believe pos- sess more force in that particular form than if they had been written to bear literary inspec- tion. The author's one hope is, that if these " Letters" have helped one person, they may help others. The: Author. TABLE OF CONTENTS.

  • Sacred Metalcore: a Worship, Culture, & Missiology Study of the Christian Metal Scene
    Sacred Metalcore: A worship, culture, & missiology study of the Christian metal scene by Paul T. Lattimer A capstone project submitted in partial fulfillment of graduating from the Academic Honors Program at Ashland University December 2012 Faculty Mentor: Dr. Craig Hovey, Assistant Professor of Religion Additional Reader: Dr. Sue Dickson, Assistant Professor of Religion Lattimer i ©2012 Paul Lattimer All Rights Reserved Lattimer ii Abstract My argument is that the Christian faith can be legitimately enacted within the subculture context of the modern metal music scene. Specifically, I survey important pieces of literature about both the secular and the sacred versions of the metal scene and examine how the Christian faith is put into practice within the scene in terms of worship style and evangelistic tactics. Some object that the metal scene is not fit for Christian practice because of its historical linkage with devil worship, explicit sexual references, profane language, rebellious attitude, violence, and church burnings, but I argue that the redemptive power of Christ and the Godhead is powerful enough to redeem a broken music scene and transform it into a new creation that can bring honor, glory, and praise to the one true God. In addition to surveying the scene and arguing for the legitimacy of it, I also discuss the pros and cons that accompany the translation of the Christian faith into a different cultural context. In the end, I determine that, while the Christian metal scene is not your traditional, Sunday morning church service, the scene is a legitimate form of Christian expression that must be carried out with care and caution because of the gravity and responsibility that accompanies bringing the gospel into a new realm.

  • Love & Death Bio Copy
    Brian “Head” Welch - Lead Vocals, Guitar J.R. Bareis - Guitar Dan Johnson - Drums Michael Valentine - Bass Like their name suggests, Love & Death captures the honesty of beauty and tragedy delivered by musicians with intense passion and commitment to the message of their music. Although Brian "Head" Welch is already an established solo artist, he has sought the artistic push-and-pull of a traditional band set up since his departure from Korn in 2005. Now he's accomplished his goal in the shape of Love and Death, combining the aggression of KoRn with added melodic elements and memorable choruses. "I fought managers about the band name thing for three years, and I finally won," recalls Head. “When I left Korn, I had a book coming out [2007's 'Save Me from Myself: How I Found God, Quit KoRn, Kicked Drugs, and Lived to Tell My Story'], so they were thinking it was a good branding thing to call my solo project Brian “Head” Welch, which I never liked. All of my band members put a lot into our project as well, so I didn't want it to be all about me - I wanted it to be about the whole band." Head has found a home as a lead vocalist as well as a guitarist. He is joined in Love and Death by seventeen year old guitarist J.R. Bareis, bassist Michael Valentine, and drummer Dan Johnson. The solidified line-up is on display throughout the group's debut full-length, 'Between Here & Lost’. ‘Between Here & Lost’ was recorded in Nashville, TN with producer Jasen Rauch (RED, Breaking Benjamin) and mixed by Paul Pavao, Ben Grosse (Marilyn Manson, Disturbed), Jim Monti (Korn), and Lee Bridges.
