MESSAGE OVERVIEW: We’re kicking off the year with a live speak from Youth Pastors all about how students can grow in their faith by putting God first in every area of their lives. Youth Pastors will share the specific ways they put God first in their schedules, their relationships, their everyday choices, and their future plans as a way to show students what this could (and probably should) look like for them.

MAIN IDEA: If you want to grow in your faith, choose to put God first.

TEACHING TEXT: But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33 NIV
