“Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?” In this workshop, we will learn the Characteristics of Christ so that we can first get them into our own hearts, and then demonstrate them and teach them to our children and our teens. Is there something that is keeping us from revealing the Father through our words and actions? We can learn to listen and be led by the Holy Spirit as we teach and minister to our students, to show His love and bless our students in practical but powerful ways.
