House cleaning night.

Well this years bunch of youth has been a challenge. We have given them inches and the have taken miles. So tonight it all comes to a head. I don't know what else to do that will bring attention to their actions and attitudes. We average about 30-35 youth on Wednesday night. But tonight we may have only 5 left. I am calling them out. I have searched the scriptures for answers and tonight's sermon will be out of Matthew. Here is the scriptures:

Matthew 21:12 Jesus entered the Temple and began to drive out the merchants and their customers. He knocked over the tables of the money changers and the stalls of those selling doves. 13He said, "The Scriptures declare, `My Temple will be called a place of prayer,' but you have turned it into a den of thieves!"

Tonight we will discuss the meaning and purpose of meeting on Wednesday nights. I am at my wits end and hope that this will bring them to their senses. If not I am willing to breaking down this youth to the cornerstone and rebuild it.

Pray that all goes well.
