SUMMMER CHALLENGE 2016
Summer is here, and with it comes our annual summer challenge. This year the theme for our challenge is "Transformed". Scripture challenges us to resist resembling the world but to be changed by renovating our minds to be like Christ (summary of Romans 12:2). Our goal is that through Bible memorization, biblical preaching, and helpful books, we will intentionally advance in our transformation by renovating our minds. I hope you'll take the challenge!
SCRIPTURE MEMORIZATION
(The due dates are listed in your notebook.)
Psalm 19
1The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
10More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
11Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
12Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
13Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
14Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.

The assignments required for the TRANSFORMED Challenge are listed here along with their due dates. It is YOUR responsibility to keep up with the projects. We will not chase you and bug you for your projects, but they must be in on time to qualify for the activity. If you will be out of town, plan on turning things in early. If something comes up to make that impossible talk to Pastor or Mrs. Burden to make arrangements ahead of time. If your work is late and we don’t hear from you, we will assume you are not going to continue towards the activity.
Pastor Burden: youthpastor@trinitybaptist.info
Mrs. Burden: rossie107@gmail.com
Assignment Information
Bring your folder each time you say a verse or turn in an assignment. There are too many people for us to keep up with who has done what, so you need to get your sheet signed with each assignment. Turn it in completed to go on the activity. Do not plan to get it signed at the end. Bring it each week with each assignment.
Verse Memorization
There will be a verse passage to learn every other week. These must be said to Pastor or Mrs. Burden by the due date. Learn them to the point of saying them without any help.
Sermons
There will be a sermon to listen to every other week. As you listen to the sermons take notes. For each sermon you need to turn in a 1/2 page (or more if needed) that includes a synopsis of the sermon (what was preached.) It can be paragraph or outline style. You also need to include a thought about each sermon. This can be something you learned, something you want to work on, or your thoughts about what he said. After your notes, write a sentence that says you listened to the entire sermon. Keep in mind that liars are fryers: Revelation 21:8 :)
