Say YAA to Truth

Three months is a pretty short time.

Less than a 100 days.

We are in the count-down to the the Youth Against Festival 2008.

Say YAA to Truth is our slogan this year.

Its about speaking truth when there are a lot of lies around - regarding our relationships - and what it means to be pure and true to a lifetime of commitment.

Its about giving young people a voice and an opportunity to sing - speak - run a tremendous show.

Its about tapping into the fun as well as the deep through a college-style fun-fair and a series of seminars on things that really matter.

Its about challenging the prevailing orthodoxy - that says its ok to sleep around and use others - as long as you cover up your own tail. And saying that there are alternatives - ways to live true.

Its about humbly standing in the face of a living and loving God who loves terribly and cares immensely about seeing us experiencing the most vivid and amazing path through life.

We are hoping to see about 600-800 young guns on December 6th 2008. The venue has just materialised - the GN Khalsa College in Matunga.

We are less than 100 days away. About a day per every 7 we expect to see come.

There seems to be an almost insurmountable set of challenges ahead. But all of these offer opportunities for us to be stretched - to trust and to experience God's power in new ways!

Will we see your hands too on the 6th of December at the YAA Fest 08?
