This link will lead you to the Lifehouse Everything Skit that high school students from FBC Church Hill performed for United for A Revolution on May 1, 2009.

This performance and any performance of this skit is very moving! As an upcoming sophmore at the local high school & a varsity cheerleader & being activly involved in my youth group I constantly have people watching me and judging me. I do my best to represent myself and my squad the best i can by not giving into peer pressure & having sex with my boy friend, or not doing drugs and drinking. In this i am not only representing myself and my squad i am representing every Christian. If we are who we say we are as Followers & Believers in Jesus Christ then we must stand strong and stand up for what we believe in. If we say we are Christians but then go out and act as any other person and do all the stuff we know we shouldnt do then we are no better than them. It is our responsibility to share the love of Jesus to the rest of the world and if we don't stand up for what is right and what we believe in then we have failed at out job.

I have been in many of the situations represented in this skit and it is not easy at all to stand strong thru all those temptations, trials, and struggles. I did fall many times and let my faith in God slip away. Before I finally got a good look at reality my relationship with God was basically non existant, but with the help of some very good friends I stood back on my feet and said "im done with those ways!" it is amazing how much God loves us and will protect us thru anything as long as we stay true to Him. I am still faced with these trials and temptations on almost a daily basis but now i know my friends who are there to help me thru and no matter if it is 2 in the morning or 3 in the afternoon all i have to do is call them or text them and say please pray for me or can i talk to you about something and they are always there to listen. You can make it thru anything life throws your way as long as you stand strong and keep God on your side.

NO MORE GOING THRU THE MOTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
