Sam had me thinking. He got my gears to turn and think alot about how to start this youth group out in West York. One thing I absolutely loved about Sam is that he is very big on "follow up." Once a person comes to the Lord, he really begins to get that person involved with the church. They don't forget about the new believers. I feel that is extremely important especially with what we are doing this summer and the following with planting churches. In believing for 1000 salvations, we MUST follow up. We MUST get them plugged in or else they will be running aimlessly or worse yet, never changing at all and then return back to their former life style. How Sam does this is he has small groups, new believer's class, phone calls, and they get them involved by serving at the church. When he mentioned that he loves to put women in children's church to teach the kids Bible stories in order that the women will learn more about it as well, I was shocked. It's brilliant! What they missed as a child, they get to experience while teaching. I love it. Sam did amazing and it was refreshing to hear new ideas and helpful hints.
