PASSION SEOUL

What is PASSION SEOUL all about?

"Finding in Christ all we need, and spending our lives to make Him famous in this generation... that's what The Passion Movement is all about and what has attracted hundreds of thousands of university aged young people to Passion gatherings over the past eleven years. Passion is more than an event. Passion is a movement made up of young people who have abandoned the idea of living simply for themselves and are daily giving up everything so the world can see Jesus more clearly. Passion is about the glory of God, inspiring a wave of students to taste and see that He is good and to do something now to change the world in Jesus' name. We've discovered that every major city in the world is a university town, most home to hundreds of thousands, and in some cases millions of students. So, Passion is off on a crazy journey to the cities of the world in 2008, uniting university students around the globe in a story so much bigger than our own."

Our group for the weekend: Tae, David, me, Sara, and Zane. I had such a great time with these guys! Lots of laughter and quality conversations. We also fully enjoyed Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, David Crowder Band, Louie Giglio, and Francis Chan together!


This is pretty much my favorite picture of Sara and me. We were pretty pumped about being at Passion... (I'm SO thankful for this girl... fyi).



Did I mention that PASSION was held at the Olympic Park? Yeah... pretty amazing!






My dear friend Tae...



Saturday morning we had some sweet girl time while we were waiting for the session to begin. Loved it!!!




Highlights of the conference:

• Hearing Francis Chan speak about GRACE... hearing his story reminded me so much of my own. I'm so thankful for God's grace... and that there is NOTHING we can do to earn his love and favor. How often I have to be reminded that life in Jesus is not based on works! Such a refreshing truth... and such a joy to join God in His work - not to earn His love but to bring Him glory!
• I am yours... forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever... There's an unexplainable security in knowing that this relationship with Jesus is going to last FOREVER. Thanks for the reminder, Mr. David Crowder!
  
• Greater things have yet to come, Greater things are still to be done in KOREA... Chris Tomlin's song, God of this City, made me so excited! God has truly done great things... but those great things are certainly not just memories in the past! Greater things are still to be done... here in Korea... and throughout the rest of the world (including Indiana... and China)!

So thankful for this weekend. It was incredibly exhausting, but worth it. We committed to pray for the PASSION TOKYO event (which is happening as I write this I believe). It was so neat to see so many Korean students loving and caring for the Japanese, especially considering the history between Korea and Japan.

Looking forward to the greater things...
