Whether about your day at school, stupid human body tricks, why ninjas are better than Barbie, or whether or not Star Wars ever happened, all you have to do is include the CHIC logo in your video. Then, post your video on YouTube and send us the link. We’ll include it in the entry list above and the video with the most hits by the first night of CHIC is the winner.

Life is a process of continually forming an identity, and the teen years are especially important. You should not be passive in claiming and forming your identity. Identity is shaped by eight factors, and Scripture addresses all eight to describe the identity God says is your true identity.

How do I and how does my faith relate with others around me? Did you know that we all label/profile people all the time and Jesus invites us to take people out of the box we put them in? This is a hard core look at how following Jesus (discipleship) pushes us towards being like Him. Don’t let anyone put your torch out and vote you off the island!
