I worry that people think I'm a perv when they see my friends list on MySpace.<br /><br />Katdish,<br />I think I sent you that in a dm.<br /><br />jasonS,<br />Not knowing her was an immediate no for me. I don't freak to much when I see my teens doing this. It's weird but ...<br /><br />Helen,<br />I agree that just cussing or anything like that is acceptable as long as there is growth. I also believe Jesus spent much of his time with fishermen. Ever hang with fishermen? Yeah.<br /><br />Candy,<br />t-shirt cannon surprise. Frigintastic.<br /><br />Steph,<br />I am called to serve youth and this is how they are online. But I'm called to serve youth I can help so see above.<br /><br />Saskia,<br />I love SCL and that post is in my top ten. I should just keep it bookmarked so I can send it to my Youth every time I read a blog or bulletin that looks like this.<br /><br />Chris,<br />Amazing how vulgar even the most upright of Youth can be isn't it. I am kidding about following back though.Nick the Geekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494956043889392219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476902858280070450.post-79784644965845598212009-05-07T06:53:00.000-07:002009-05-07T06:53:00.000-07:00So my first thought would be are you kidding?

He's a Christian! I'm still pretty furious because I don't think being a teen is an excuse to be an idiot. But still, teens sometimes need an extra dose of grace.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273307757381135560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476902858280070450.post-91359687815574173762009-05-06T06:17:00.000-07:002009-05-06T06:17:00.000-07:00Send them a link to "booty, God, booty" on SCL, th...Send them a link to "booty, God, booty" on SCL, then see if things improve. We've all been young and stupid once and that person might be still stuck in the "cursing shows I'm hip" phase. SCL will soon set her straight :)<br /> (on the young and stupid thing, I'm 22, so I don't think I'm entirely over that yet, which is why I reserve the right to judge others ;))Saskiahttp://lifeisdreaming.livejournal.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476902858280070450.post-46090774125500955742009-05-03T12:59:00.000-07:002009-05-03T12:59:00.000-07:00Well clearly this is a teenager.

That level of mood swinging is limited to adolescence.<br /><br />And obviously you are called to serve youth.<br /><br />So I think you know what God is telling you to do.Stephanie Wetzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09856446767908308441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476902858280070450.post-15783438822884162042009-05-02T20:43:00.000-07:002009-05-02T20:43:00.000-07:00tough one.

Which way does the Holy Spirit seem to be tugging? Not everyone who cusses is bad. I am not particularly comfortable with cussing, or with people who cuss, but sometimes you have to look past that stuff. Sometimes you gotta stomp your foot and say "NOT in MY home!" , which is what my mother would say to GUESTS who said stuff like that. They were lucky, because I'd get SMACKED! I got smacked once, decided I didn't like it. But that's not what you asked. You asked what you should do. I ask, is the Holy Spirit saying to look past it, or NOT on MY tweetdeck?Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18070555200892952455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476902858280070450.post-23408070353383231382009-05-02T17:19:00.000-07:002009-05-02T17:19:00.000-07:00I would say no, what would you benefit from follow...I would say no, what would you benefit from following this person?
