do hard things






















































































































I read a book in the last year entitled Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations written by Alex and Brett Harris. These twin teenagers challenge readers to imagine "what is possible for teens who actively resist cultural lies that limit their potential."

I thought of that book this weekend as I watched Megan Pattee, an 18 year old college freshman, follow to completion a vision God had given her for an art show. Last evening's Heart Project was a tangible glimpse of teens doing great things with God. Five thousand dollars was raised to help partners in Haiti equip their new school, all under the leadership of Megan whose passion drove and energized the whole project. Thanks for the inspiration, Megan!
