Romans 8:31-39

TEXT The first internship I did was in Canton, TX. I was 20 and going into my junior year of college. I really had no idea what I was doing. The youth minister at the church stuck around for about the first two weeks of my internship and then moved his family to Dallas and I heard from him once in the next 8 weeks. There was nothing on the calendar and I had no previous experience with youth ministry, I just thought it would be a fun thing to do over the summer. I learned a lot about youth ministry and church that summer, things I will never forget as long as I live. I put together a canoe trip for the end of the summer for the students and we ended up taking about 15 kids to Oklahoma for three days of fun. The canoe trip was a disaster (ask me later), but the camping was a lot of fun. Each night was spent in Romans 8:28-39. We had some really good discussions and thoughts over this and all in all the weekend was a success. One of the things that I cannot leave behind as we go through 2008 is this passage. It is something that has stuck with me and will always bring back good memories of my first youth group. What passages are like that for you?
