So He called me to find a way to have these young CYC followers check themselves on how they're living. Right away I knew I couldn't come out the gate and start preaching them on what they should and shouldn't be doing. No "You shouldn't argue with your mother, that's not Christlike!" Nope. Instead, I was able to think of a way to challenge these guys. To make them look at their own lives and ask themsevles if they are living right. So I posted the following blog. And I'm going to be following it with more blogs, each one highlighting a personal trait that makes an Absolute Young Christian.

We've been called by the big man to pose a question to all of you out there in Myspace land, all of you CYC'ers.

Are you an Absolute Young Christian?


Now, what do we mean when we ask this? What do we mean when we say 'absolute?'
Definition time!

Absolute - Complete, Outright


So when we ask, are you an Absolute Young Christian we are simply asking, are you completely, totally, outright and without exception a young Christian?
In today's world there are so many things pulling us away from the one direction we needed to be headed. So many things pulling us away from Him. So many things that are creating a buffer between us and God.

HERE IT COMES!


We are here to set the challenge and place the call out to all of you! Are YOU an AYC? (pronounced ace, as in "whenever I need some prayer help I know I have an AYC in the hole." Or whatever other clever pun you can think of.)
Over the next couple weeks we are going to be posting different traits of being an AYC. We're going to blueprint exactly what makes someone an Absolute Young Christian. That way, if you start to let those things begin to pull you the wrong way, you can jump back over to here and remember just what makes YOU who you are.
Being an AYC is what YOU are meant to be. So we start with the challenge:

Are you an Absolute Young Christian?


And if not,

Are you ready to be?
