Growth Through S3

Students Standing Strong (S3) played a vital role in my faith as a student in GCISD. It served as the benchmark for personal growth and solid community, especially during my 4 years at Grapevine High School.

By the time I was a senior in 2014, I was serving as S3 President, which really motivated me to pursue Christ in a way that would point others to Him.

While busy with school and football, S3 gave me an opportunity to slow my week down, recenter my focus, and truly grow in my faith with friends and classmates. It challenged my thinking as well as my actions. It motivated me to be the best version of myself as well as prepared me for the challenges that I later faced in college.

Without S3, I can genuinely say that I would not be the same man, brother, or son that I am today. I am very appreciative for all the people who make S3 run so smoothly and effectively.

I would encourage anyone who is on the fence to attend at least one S3 Bible club and see what it’s all about. I can assure you that you will be welcomed with open arms and will leave encouraged, ready to face life’s many challenges.

Best,
Clint, S3 Alum

    Clint, thank you so much for sharing your heart and words of encouragement. I hope many readers take you up on your challenge to attend an S3 Club meeting at least once. Maybe someone will even be challenged to START a club!

What does Kindness look like to you? Smiling at pe What does Kindness look like to you? Smiling at people? Giving compliments? Acting nice? The kindness that comes from the Holy Spirit is a kindness beyond what comes natural to us. When Jesus teaches about how many times we are to forgive others he says, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven." (Matthew 18:22) This speaks of unlimited forgiveness! 
Jesus also teaches: "You have heard that it is said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” (Matthew 5:43-44)

It's not usually difficult to be kind to our friends or family, but to forgive those who hurt us, and bless and pray for them? That is hard! We need the Holy Spirit to guide us in Kindness.
