2024 FLAME ON
This was my first Flame On event , and man , let me tell you how awesome it was . I have been involved with CMA for 21 years . Sadly , I was complacent when it came to youth . I always said that youth ministry was for others to worry about . It was not my calling , right ? Wrong . The Holy Spirit took me to school at Flame On . He rearranged everything that I had planned . Yes , Flame On is for the youth , but for the adult transformations that take place , wow ! This year ’ s theme was REVIVAL , and REVIVAL starts with me . God smacked me with the realization that not only does REVIVAL start with me , but it starts with pouring into the youth .
We cannot have revival in this land without them ; they are the spark that turns into the ember that turns into the flame that fuels revival , not only in the United States but the world . If you are like me and think that Youth Movement is not for you , I ask that you pray about that thought . If you truly are not called , you would still pour into the Youth Movement of CMA . See how you and your chapter can support this amazing ministry .
My wife was not a member of CMA before this and never had a desire . She supported me but never really caught the vision . After watching the live stream , not only did she finish member training , she has encouraged and answered the call to equip the next generation . Praise God for what the Ministry of CMA is doing , and thank you , God , for Ben and Rachel and all the Reps who make this happen . Also , I would like to offer praise for the change in my own child who attended 2024 ! Revival may start with me , but it explodes with US ! I cannot wait until 2025 !!
