Youth Blending Conference (Sep 1–5, 2026)
In the Old Testament, every time the Israelites gathered in the Tent of Meeting, God's was with them. In fact, God speaks out of the Tent of Meeting. For us to have God's speaking, we have to be in the Tent of Meeting. This one-week youth blending conference was really the time that God speaks to us.
The general subject of this youth blending conference is "Living a Normal Christian Life in the Church Life." Though our youths are young, they need to know that when they believed in the Lord, they are born of God and have receive the divine life of God. Even though they are young, they are children of God; authority has been given to them to become children of God (John 1:12). However, God still commands his believers to love Him with all our heart, with all our soul, and with all our mind (Matt. 22:37-38). We praise the Lord for such a commandment! The Lord is so sweet to us, we just love the Lord with all our heart.
If we love the Lord, we will also love to listen to His word. Because Mary loved the Lord Jesus, she chose the better part, sitting down at the Lord's feet to listen to His word. We thank the Lord for the speaking in this conference; but we also want the Lord to speak us every day in our daily living.
As Christians, we are also a singing people. God wants His children to have fine and tender feelings. The deepest feelings that flow from a man's heart before God are the fine and tender feelings, the feelings expressed in songs. After we believe in the Lord, we must learn to sing hymns and develop fine and tender feelings toward God.
Besides this, we also want our young people to study diligently for the Lord. For our young people to be useful to the Lord, they not only need to love the Lord, they also need to receive the proper education and have a healthy human body. This is the best time for them to get their education. We encourage all of them to further their studies after graduating from secondary school, so that their usefulness in the Lord's hand will not be limited by their education.
Lastly, we also want our youths to have the burden of the gospel. The Christian life is not an individualistic life. Every believer needs the gospel to be brought to him by another believer. Although Saul met the Lord on the way to Damascus, he still needed Ananias to initiate him into the identification with the Body. Today as we enjoy the Lord in the church life, we also need to pray for our friends that they might be saved and enjoy the Lord together with us.
