1. People date because they think / hope the other person likes them. I don't need a BF.

2. Jesus.

3. It means both to believe in Jesus and to belong to the family of believers - the Church. To some it's one or the other, to me it's both.

4. Because no one lifts them up so they try to elevate themselves by doing what they can to lower others.

5. By getting on your knees and asking Jesus for a backstage pass. He's the only way to get one.

6. They won't let me in - too many wrinkles?

7. hmmm. many reasons

8. $100. Self esteem is overrated.

9. I have a love / hate relationship with the church. But I mostly love it, and furthermore, I'm commited to it.

10. Tons of them. More every year. I like them the best when I let them be who they are.

11. Don't know. Never had one.

12. I pray for the youth. And I hope for them. I'm excited about them.

13. That no matter how much I suck, God still loves me.

14. Matty

15. looong answer

16. Advertisers! I hate advertisers. (although I can't seem to get enough of the Mac vs PC commercials, I'm such a sucker)

17. fun.

19. Matt

20. to worship God together.

1. It depends on the age of the people involved. Teens are usually just looking for validation from the opposite sex. My boyfriend is Gary. :)

2. My everything.

3. To love Jesus with all of my heart and share His love with others.

4. They're insecure.

5. By being a Christian.

6. Because it's my job. And because I love it. And because I'm really just a big kid myself.

7. They're usually looking for something to fill the void in their life.

8. I've got pretty good self-esteem, so I'll take the $100.

9. I love church. I miss it when I can't be there.

10. Gary's my very good friend because he loves me no matter what.

11. I expect them to be real.

12. My role is to be the top banana. Just kiddin'!

13. I love my sense of humor and my positive attitude.

14. Gary...awww.

15. I love comedies.

16. Jesus rules my world.

17. Good friends, cuz I don't know much about X-Box 360.

18. Youth group should be a safe place to have fun, make friends and to grow in your faith.

19. Jesus, cuz He's the boss. Gary's a close second though.

20. Music at church is used to open our hearts and minds to the Holy Spirit so that we are connected to God in such a way that we can hear Him speaking to us. At least that's what happens to me!
