In their world - a website for parents of teenagers
Check out http://www.intheirworld.org/. I picked up some of the Sample material at Greenbelt and it does look like it's put together quite well.

50 things I believe
I am currently at Greenbelt and went to an Ikon event last night - very thought provoking. For me the bit that really stood out was when one of the guys stood up and read out a list of 50 things I believe...it was to the point, funny, shocking?? and serious...maybe I should make a list. I wonder what would happen if we were that honest with people? It could be an idea worth exploring with some of the young people...

Purpose - a reflective powerpoint
This was week Hiede and Jonathan have been running Pyramid Rock summer club and on Sunday we had a service to finish it off. My contribution was to put together a "quiet reflective bit" for those who took part (basically the adults). I've uploaded the power point here. I gave everyone this sheet and pen before they came in. I played some "reflective" music from Moby "play" - Inside and My Weakness.

Website idea for "growing up"
I stumbled across www.goodcharacter.com and found this talk that could be used as a starting point for a discussion on growing up. It's a secular website, but you could use some of the ideas. It has some other talk outlines here
